2018 Cote de Brouilly La Chapelle

From a steeply sloping, southerly exposed parcel that's comparatively high in altitude, Thivin's 2018 Côte de Brouilly La Chapelle is especially successful this year, wafting from the glass with aromas of cherries, raspberries, spices and dried roses. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with satiny structuring tannins, excellent depth and concentration and lively, succulent acids.
