Vignes Et Terroirs Du Beaujolais

Domaine De La Grand'Cour (Jean-Louis Dutraive)

Les Clos Cuvée Vielles Vignes Fleurie Gamay 2022

Good fruit, smooth tannins….this wine is drinking well and has some life left — 9 months ago

Les Frères Perroud

Vieilles Vignes Brouilly Gamay 2018

Budget friendly Cru Beaujolais (Brouilly). Vivid light ruby color. Intense nose of earth, smoke, purple flowers, wet stones and red berries. Just a touch of Brett. Pallet is full of lush and juicy red and blue fruit. Hint of baking spices. Gentle texture and extremely soft tannins. Bright! — 3 years ago

Vignes Centenaires Beaujolais Villages Gamay 2014

For many years I have found this wine to be subdued and shut down and have always wondered how that’s possible but NOW this wine was so expressive it became the winner for a few days of showing. Too much to say. This is expert winemaking with real unique clean and noble style. Still no one has caught on. Trained by Allemand in Cornas. — 5 years ago

Strawberry and reminds you how close Beaujolais is to the Rhône and yes his 14s and 16s are better (by far) but this warmed me up — 8 years ago

Château Thivin

Les Sept Vignes Côte de Brouilly Gamay 2018

Crimson in colour. Sappy cherry aromas - earthy notes. Sour cherry flavours, juicy red fruits, some spice. Light to medium bodied palate and tannins. Apparently a little bit of Chardonnay goes into the blend with the Gamay. Obviously more a summer than a winter drink but curiosity got the better of me. I don’t drink much Beaujolais but this was highly recommended by Roscoe at Prince Wine Store in South Melbourne. Congratulations @PrinceWineStore for being named in the Top 10 Wine Stores in the World! Saw the list in the regular email I get from Acker in New York. Acker were #1 ; Berry Bros and Rudd in London were #2 . — 5 years ago

Vieilles Vignes Moulin-à-Vent Gamay 2017

Great big violets, cherries and blueberries. Has the tension of a heavier spatburgunder. Tannins are fine grained and integrated. So many flowers, lots of perfume. Happy making juice here. Not simple, depth of flavor, good balance, enough tannins to have a long finish. Good stuff. — 6 years ago

Vieilles Vignes Gravallon Morgon Red Blend 2014

This is how I want all wine to taste. Great acid that rolls into great tannins with enough body to feel satiating but still juicy and refreshing. — 7 years ago

Georges Descombes

Vieilles Vignes Morgon Gamay 2014

Fresh strawberries and cranberries on first nose, mineral component coming through after a swirl, generous fruit in mouth supported by acidic tension. Already in balance + it surely has more stories to tell in the next 2-4 years. Impeccable. — 8 years ago

Vieilles Vignes Morgon Gamay 2017

Columbia County 2.0: interesting drinking this day after a German Pinot, as I found them surprisingly related. A fave Beaujo producer’s Morgon, also a cooler tone & elegant. Blackberries & cassis, darker berries and a fine grittiness to integrated tannins. I like this drinking window (6 yrs) but imagine several if not more left. — 2 years ago

Wow - power Beauj, unexpected. Dark, Somewhat austere (age) yet also fruity. Maybe that’s the old vines? Not sure what to compare it to - maybe a good CDP — 6 years ago
