Domaine De La Grand'Cour (Jean-Louis Dutraive)
Cuvée Vielles Vignes Brouilly Gamay
Wanted to wait on this but just couldn’t resist - very focused raspberry fruit with floral elements slight fresh herbs absolutely delightful on the nose on the mouth big fruit with a little more alcohol than expected but full and elegant

Aug 28th, 2018Hints of floral aroma from a nice core of candied raspberry/tomato. Very nice texture and initial tannin grip that resolves w air. A touch of bret- Diana not a fan.

The best of the 15s, excellent fruit and balance, in line with the style of his excellent Fleurie wines.

Oct 1st, 20162009. Some rich cherry liqueur from the vintage, some interesting cut grass notes in the palate along with big time fruit. Nose gives up a lot of leather--goes in different directions like Bordeaux or aged Portuguese reds with Touriga Nacional. Quite nice!
