Beaujolais-Villages is an AOC located in the Beaujolais region of France, encompassing a designated area for the production of red wines primarily made from the Gamay grape. The appellation includes several communes that are situated outside the ten crus of Beaujolais, allowing for a broader range of terroirs while still adhering to the quality standards set by the AOC regulations. The wines produced here are typically characterized by their fruit-forward profiles and are often consumed young.
