Karim Vionnet Beaujolais Villages 2020

Karim Vionnet was born in Lyon and adopted by a family in Morgon, where he worked for 10 years as a vineyard hand and winemaker under such Beaujolais icons as Guy Breton and Marcel Lapierre. When he started his own winery, he was told that his ethnic first name would limit sales, so at first, he labeled his wines as ‘K. Vionnet’. But eventually, Karim embraced his Arabic heritage and began putting his full name on his wines, even naming one of his Beaujolais-Villages cuvées “Du Beur Dans Les Pinards” (“Arab in your wine”), a play on the French saying “du beurre dans les épinards”, which refers to when you have enough money to “add a bit of butter in your spinach.” While Karim owns no vineyards himself, he is responsible for the organic farming and vinification of 5 hectares of 40-60 year old vines around Beaujolais. 

This Gamay was hand-harvested and fermented spontaneously in tanks, which are kept airtight during fermentation and maturation, releasing the built-up CO2 just before bottling. Karim believes that this technique, combined with careful natural temperature control, helps preserve the purity of the fruit. The wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered, with minimal sulfur. Aromas and flavors of wild berries, currants, and plums mingle with touches of spice, licorice, and hints of earthy oolong tea. A silky, refined texture wraps it all up beautifully. Very elegant and structured, almost Burgundian in style, this is a wonderful companion at the dinner table. Organically grown, low-intervention/natural wine, vegan.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is paramount to our business. We source our products exclusively from reputable, licensed importers, distributors, wine brokers, and world-renowned auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's. We also acquire bottles from select private collections where clear and documented provenance is provided, ensuring a verifiable history for our finest items.

Yes, in most cases, the photograph on the product page is of the specific bottle for sale. If we have multiple quantities of the same item, the photo represents the general condition of all bottles under that SKU. Any significant condition issues, such as low ullage or bin-stained labels, will be clearly noted in the product description. We are happy to provide additional high-resolution images upon request-please contact us.

We use premium, industry-standard materials to protect every shipment. Depending on the bottle and destination, we use a combination of insulated foam box inserts, custom-fit air column bags, and heavy-weight cardboard shippers to prevent damage. For added peace of mind, we offer shipping protection against loss or damage at checkout through OrderProtection.com.

For wine, we recommend storing bottles on their side in a dark, vibration-free environment with good humidity, ideally between 55-60°F. Spirits like whiskey should be stored upright in a cool, dark place (60-70°F) away from direct sunlight to preserve their quality.

We accept all major credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. We also offer flexible payment options through Shop Pay Installments and Sezzle. For customers interested in using cryptocurrency, we accept BTC, ETH, XRP, USDC, and more through Coinbase Commerce.
