Written Notes

Tasted in August 2021. From 5 ha vineyard placed in the middle of the hill of Brouilly. Manual harvest, vinified partly in whole bunches and ageing in large oak foudres for 7-9 months. Griottes mean morello cherries, and the flavour/aroma is recognisable in the wine. Delicate nose of some black cherries as well, dried herbs, wild strawberries and redcurrants. Mineral on the palate with discreet acidity, velvety and delicate taste. Tannin keeps itself very much in the background allowing the wine to express its freshness and fruitness.  Fine length and silky finish. My first encounter with this producer, and I’m thrilled to have tasted this expressive and well-made wine! 91-92p.
