Domaine Les Roches Bleues
Côte de Brouilly Gamay
New producer for me. Surprised by the density & concentration. Deep blue fruits. Barrel aged, another surprise. Almost like Brouilly meets Morgon. Also, a relative QPR at 20$

Jul 16th, 2023Very solid and prototypical Côte de Brouilly. Nose is zesty with lots of crushed granite dust and crunchy wild berry fruit. A little unexpected sprinkle of cinnamon. In the mouth it’s mineral and a little animal too, with the fruit there but in equilibrium with the first two characters. Great value at around $22.

Nov 8th, 2014Wow. Beautiful, beautiful Brouilly! Blues, black plums, dried herbs and Indian spices. Silky and plush. Helluva way to end the weekend and start the week!
