- A charming and textured Brouilly shows fresh red plum aromas and typical graphite notes. An elegant Brouilly shows concentrated aromas of cassis and black berried fruits. Ripe and vibrant black fruits are echoed on the palate, structured with soft tannins and a charming, silky finish.
The grapes were hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and underwent a temperature-controlled semi-carbonic maceration lasting eight to ten days. The wine was pressed, and 100% underwent malolactic conversion, resulting in a softer expression on the palate. The wine was made in an unoaked style to retain the purity of the fruit.
A charming Brouilly shows fresh aromas of red plum, black cherry, and a hint of spice. Ripe black fruits are echoed on the palate, textured with soft tannins and a touch of graphite on the silky finish.

Winery | Brouilly is the largest and most southerly of the 10 Beaujolais Crus. The vineyard is situated at the foot of the volcanic Mount Brouilly. The climate is semi-continental; winters are cold, and summers are generally warm. Due to its southerly location, Brouilly tends to produce riper fruit flavours than the other Crus. The 20-year-old vines are grown in granite soils, which provide excellent drainage for the vines. The vines are free-standing bush vines pruned according to the Gobelet method. |
