Jean-Paul Brun Le Ronsay Beaujolais 2016
Beaujolais, Burgundy, France#GoGamayGo. Brilliant value for this young Beaujolais, an "entry tier" wine composed of young vines (still 20+ years) and made through the same low-interventionist philosophy that governs all of legendary Jean-Paul Brun's wines. Rock roses, wild raspberry, white peppercorn, sapid herbals rush through this lean, charming, light bodied and highly quaffable wine. Tannins are bamboo fine, housing this to a peppery finish. Honest, characterful, authentic; I challenge anyone who says they don't like gamay to not like this real wine.Tasted: 18 April 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $22.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
