This approachable, easy-drinking red wine represents what’s unique about Beaujolais. Rich and robust to light and acidic. This Brouilly highlights palate with notes of dark fruit such as blueberry and blackberry and ripe fruit notes of plum and cherry followed by a pleasant hit of tannins and acid that balance the richness of this wine. This medium body Gamay drinks well with game meat, stews, and local cheese.

Brouilly is known as the powerhouse of the Beaujolais Cru. It is here where the Gamay variety is strongly influence by the granite soils that dominate the area. Granite is what gives many of the wines in the Rhône their power, and it impacts Gamay in a similar way. The wines here have richness like Syrah, but elegance and brightness more akin to Pinot Noir. Wines from Brouilly are amazing when young, but can also be incredible with age.
