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.
