Georges Duboeuf Brouilly 2018
Brouilly, Beaujolais Villages, Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceBrouilly is the most southerly of the ten crus of Beaujolais, often described as the most exuberant, and it is the largest by production. The vineyards wrap around the base of the impressive Mont Brouilly, stretching across six communes. The colour is intense and vibrant, the nose a mix of floral notes and light pepper and red raspberry fruit. The attack is elegant and understated with bright black cherry/blueberry fruit with only moderate, mostly slippery tannins. Drink or hold through 2021. We imagine duck or pork dishes would be an excellent match.Tasted: 21 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $21.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
