Domaine des Terres Dorées (Jean-Paul Brun)
Cuvée l'Anciene Beaujolais Gamay
Brun's entry level bottling is singing in '18, with red fruit and bright acid on a medium bodied frame. Incredible value.

Feb 8th, 2021Beautiful Beaujolais that transcends the appellation. With 3 years it’s starting to behave like a Pinot Noir. Blind of all, we’d certainly be wrong. A wine that needs at least one hour of aeration to give time to the beautiful material to deploy. Fine, tight and persistent tannins. Serve at 12-13 degrees.
Superbe Beaujolais qui transcende l’appellation. Avec 3 ans ça commence à se comporter comme un pinot noir, d’ailleurs à l’aveugle on s’y tromperait certainement. Un vin qui a besoin d’une heure d’aération au moins pour laisser le temps à la belle matière de se déployer. Tanins fin, serrés et persistants. Servir à 12-13 degrés.

Strawberries and powdered sugar on a bed of hay. Lingonberry. Light, nice acid, simple, solid weeknight drinker.

Dec 21st, 2020Light and very fruity. Almost infused floral notes. A gourmet Beaujolais by one of the great craftsmen of the region with respect for nature. The kind of wine at 14 € that I could drink from morning to evening, serve around 13-14 degrees.
