Beaujolais is a historical province and a wine-producing region in France. It is located north of Lyon, and covers parts of the north of the Rhône département and parts of the south of the Saône-et-Loire département. The region is known internationally for its long tradition of winemaking, and more recently for the enormously popular Beaujolais nouveau. Beaujolais Nouveau is a red wine made from Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc grape, better known simply as Gamay. It is the most popular win de primeur, a purple-pink wine reflecting its youth, bottled only 6-8 weeks after harvest. This pigmentation is represented by the color scheme of the project. This stylish texture is paired with clear and contemporary graphic elements that embody the juvenility and elegance of the Beaujolais Nouveau wine.
