Jean-Paul Brun Terres Dorées l'Ancien Beaujolais 2020
Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceTerres Dorées is a limestone-laden area known as the "Region of the Golden Stones." Sustainably focused and non-interventionist in both the vineyard and winery, Brun is a firm advocate of minimal SO2, natural yeast, old vines and low yields. L'Ancien, from vines 50-80 years old, was destemmed and native fermented on skins for 4-6 weeks in concrete or neutral wood. Very fragrant, with wild cherry, juicy wild plum, dried roses, woven throughout pencil shavings, rasped stone, white pepper on the graceful palate. Tannins are long and lithe, and acidity is limestone lit, finishing with a shimmer. Drinking very smartly now, and with some time ahead.Tasted: 04 January 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $25.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
