This #wine is genius, bright, racy red berry fruit with jarring minerality and spicyness. 80 year old vines, rocks, awesome

Most tightly wound Brouilly I've had. Pretty intense cranberry-ish nectarine thing going on. Not my favorite expression but okay for group drinking.

Fantastic stuff - exactly what I want in Cru Beaujolais. Delicious red fruit, an elegant mouthfeel, and enough acidity to provide lift on the finish.
