Winemaker Notes
The 2018 Domaine Des Quatre Vents is a brilliant garnet color. Fresh aromas of red and black fruits, baking spices, floral notes, and a subtle note of vanilla. Silky tannins and a persistent finish.
This wine is best accompanied with dishes such as grilled red meats, lamb shanks, spicy dishes and aged cheeses.

James Suckling
Very perfumed and fresh with aromas of sliced plums, lemon rind and orange blossom that follow through to a medium body, linear and fine tannins and a clean finish. Classy.

Wine Enthusiast
From a family-owned estate that is managed by Georges Duboeuf, this wine shows a good structure as well as ripe fruit. Tannins give weight and backbone to a wine that could well age. Drink from late 2020.

For over 40 years Georges Duboeuf has been the Beaujolais region's most renowned négociant and is today regarded in the wine world as the "King of Beaujolais." Born in 1933 in Pouilly-Fuissé, the son of a winegrower, Georges began selling his family's wines from the back of his bicycle to now-legendary local chefs such as Paul Bocuse and Paul Blanc. In 1964, Georges realized his dream and founded his own company: Les Vins Georges Duboeuf.
Over the years, Georges has developed long-standing relationships with the region's top growers and winemakers. Georges is involved in every aspect of his enterprise and is known for his passion and his legendary palate. In 2003, the Duboeuf family opened a new, modern winery in Romanéche-Thorins. The following year, the Duboeuf and Deutsch families jointly purchased Chateau des Capitans in Juliénas. With annual sales of 30 million bottles, Georges Duboeuf is one of the world's best-known French brands.
