Brouilly, Beaujolais

Château Thivin

"Reverdon" Brouilly Gamay 2023

Rustic nose, with mushrooms, iron, red meat, slightly crunchy read fruit, rose florals and maybe even a hint of crisp red apple. Medium body, and a dark, deep ruby or rose color. Palate is zingy with hints of blood orange, high quality balsamic, honestly bubble gum or some sort of candied flavor, piñon wood, with dark chocolate (like cacao) and a little tar and burnt fennel at the finish. Whew, this is rich and fun, but not so high ABV or weight that it’s overwhelming. — 22 days ago

Morgon Gamay 2021

Strong musk and forest on the nose. Bramble, dark fruits, and a hint of red fruits on the forward palate. Forest floor/wet fruit and mild gasoline/rubber on the mid and end palate. Smooth low-med tannins, full-minus body. Bright med+ acidity. Needs to decant and breathe before drinking. — 24 days ago

Domaine Chamonard

Le Clos de Lys Morgon Gamay 2009

Lovely aged Morgon, redfruits and solid weight still (I’d guess because of the warmer 2009 vintage), nice balance, medrum-long finish, quite good (but time to drink up, IMHO). — 20 hours ago
