favorite village for beaujolais?

Hello Travelers -- was wondering if anyone would offer their thoughts on their favorite village from which to visit the Beaujolais wineries and vinyards? We are working our way from Paris to Reims, Epernay, Strasbourg, Riquewihr, Eguisheim, Beaune, (and somewhere else in upper Burgundy tbd) to the Beaujolais region for one or two nights, and ending up in Lyon to catch a train back to Paris. I%26#39;ve noticed that some of the hotels recommended for the area are rural -- which is lovely, but since we live in rural SC, we always like to stay in character-heavy towns %26amp; villages when we travel. Thanks in advance!

In the Beaujolais -- one of our favorite regions, with nice rolling hills -- we especially like to stay in the towns of Julienas and Fleurie. In Julienas, you might stay at Chez la Rose, www.chez-la-rose.fr/en/hotel.html -- it%26#39;s a (**) hotel, in the middle of the small town, with a nice restaurant. It%26#39;s run by a young couple with plans of expansion and continued improvement (a swimming pool soon?)







Have a good trip.
