CÔTE DE BROUILLY
Lieu-dit "CHAVANNES"
Soil/Topography
Plot with a moderate to significant slope, made up of very porous surface soil, with a high sand content, favoring deep root exploration. This is a very qualitative terroir, dominated by pink sands from granites. Underground, we observe the appearance of granite alterite around 60 - 80 cm deep, whose friable nature allows the roots to continue their exploration.

Tasting notes
Commented by Olivier Poussier:
Color : A dark ruby with purple reflections.
Nose : The nose is open on black and red fruits. The level is good but suffers a little more from the solar side. A sweeter and more stewed tone defines the fruit which reveals itself like a coulis. The graphite presence is lighter, the wine is more based on the generosity of the fruits.
Palate : The palate is rich, opulent, with a full and pulpy heart. The whole is unifying with well-coated tannins. At this stage of youth, the quality of the fruit quenches the thirst.
Service temperature : 57°F

95/100
James Suckling : "The complex and compelling nose of red fruit pulls you inexorably into the concentrated and beautifully proportioned medium-bodied palate of this exciting Cote de Brouilly. At the super-elegant finish, the very fine tannins gently build to a mineral climax"
