The wine region of Brouilly
Largest Beaujolais cru (1,300 ha) fanning out at the foot of Mont Brouilly (UNESCO Geopark). Signature Gamay noir: fruity, accessible reds with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, peony and a mineral touch, supple tannins and a moreish palate — the most convivial expression of Beaujolais, to drink young. Diverse soils: pink granite, blue limestone stones, marls and alluvium. To be distinguished from Côte de Brouilly on the slopes of the Mont.
The wine region of Beaujolais
Kingdom of Gamay (98% of the vineyard): fruity, accessible reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, banana (carbonic maceration), violet and sweet spices, supple tannins and juicy acidity. From festive Beaujolais Nouveau (3rd Thursday of November) to the 10 more structured, age-worthy Crus: deep earthy Morgon, sturdy Moulin-à-Vent, floral Fleurie, crunchy Brouilly. Some lively Chardonnay. 12,000 ha south of Burgundy, granitic soils.
The word of the wine: Concentrator
A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
