Lapalu Cote de Brouilly
Vintage: | 2023 |
---|---|
Description: | The Mont Brouilly, a volcanic "bump" in the granite bedrocks of the Beaujolais, is a terroir of mineral-rich bluish rock with little or no soil, giving a quite different character to the wines. The Lapalu 2023 is from a one hectare parcel of old vines with northeast exposure, so late to ripen. In the sometimes hot and sometimes rainy 2023 vintage, the results turned out very well - the wine shows a bright black/red color and earthy aromas of blackberry, black cherry and red currant with violet, black pepper and citrus. The palate is dense and earthy with blackberry and black cherry, framed in firm acidity and quite prominent mineral flavors that continue in the well-structured finish. Still a young wine, this will drink well with grilled meats and stews, best with a long decant or three to five more |
