Cote De Brouilly
As its name suggests, Côte de Brouilly comes from the steep slopes of Mont Brouilly, which is of volcanic origin. Unless you prefer the more colourful legend that the hill was formed from the debris tipped out of the basket of a giant who had dug out the Saône! Its soils are made up of granite and hard schist of a dark blue-green colour. This is the famous "blue stone" that gives this noble "cru" its vigour and (with time) great finesse.
A lovely garnet colour, fleshy, full and smooth, very harmonious with delicious apricot and plum flavours.
This wine will retain all its qualities.
