CÔTE DE BROUILLY

This single-parcel cuvée comes from vines nestled on the western slope of Mont Brouilly.
This Côte-de-Brouilly cru stands out for the uniqueness of its soil: the parcel, with slopes ranging from moderate to steep, features a highly porous surface soil with a high sand content, encouraging deep root penetration. It is an exceptionally high-quality terroir, dominated by pink sands derived from granite. In the subsoil, weathered granite appears at a depth of 60-80 cm, and its friable nature allows roots to continue their exploration further down.

Commented by Olivier Poussier:

Color : A dark ruby ​​with purple reflections.

Nose : The nose is open on black and red fruits. The level is good but suffers a little more from the solar side. A sweeter and more stewed tone defines the fruit which reveals itself like a coulis. The graphite presence is lighter, the wine is more based on the generosity of the fruits.

Palate : The palate is rich, opulent, with a full and pulpy heart. The whole is unifying with well-coated tannins. At this stage of youth, the quality of the fruit quenches the thirst.

Service temperature : 57°F

95/100

James Suckling : "The complex and compelling nose of red fruit pulls you inexorably into the concentrated and beautifully proportioned medium-bodied palate of this exciting Cote de Brouilly. At the super-elegant finish, the very fine tannins gently build to a mineral climax"
