The Details

Bon Pas is the estate of Nicolas Bompas.

Before starting his own estate he worked in some wonderful estates such as Gramenon and Cras. Plus for the last couple of years he has also been a winemaker at Romuald Valot. 

In 2021 he decided to settle in Beaujolais and has slowly started to purchase vineyards, of which he currently has only a small holding. The vines are organically farmed with the use of horses for the vineyard work. The winery is located in Saint Etienne des Ouilleres and no additions are used including sulphur.

 

About Beaujolais

Wines from Beaujolais, a charming region in eastern France, are celebrated for their joyful and exuberant character. The star grape of the region is Gamay, and it shines brilliantly in the hands of Beaujolais winemakers. These wines are best known for their fruity and vibrant nature, marked by red berry, cherry, and floral aromas, often accompanied by a subtle earthy quality. Beaujolais Nouveau, released just weeks after harvest, is a beloved tradition that showcases the region's youthful and fresh expressions. Beyond Nouveau, Beaujolais offers a spectrum of styles, from the light and quaffable Beaujolais-Villages to the more complex and age-worthy Crus like Morgon and Fleurie. Beaujolais wines are celebrated for their food-friendliness and the sheer pleasure they bring to the table, making them a delightful choice for both casual sipping and pairing with a wide range of cuisines.
