The Brouilly wine from Chateau de Corcelles

Brouilly is named after Mont Brouilly, a hill that towers majestically in the heart of this Beaujolais Cru. From this hill, you have a clear view of the 1,300 hectares that make up Brouilly. This may not seem like much, but Brouilly boasts the largest number of vineyards, where Gamay grows with incredible gusto. The vines in Brouilly, owned by Château de Corcelles, are on average forty years old, making the designation "Vieilles Vignes" on the label a necessary luxury. To qualify this wine as a Brouilly, Château de Corcelles must adhere to various growing and harvesting regulations. To meet these requirements, the winery has selected a team of 150 pickers. They pick each grape individually and inspect each one; after all, only the very best are allowed to become part of Château de Corcelles Brouilly. While vinification is carried out using modern methods, the talented winemaker adheres to the authentic techniques that are the hallmark of Beaujolais wines.

Impressions of Chateau de Corcelles Brouilly

When we tasted this Brouilly wine, we immediately noticed that Château de Corcelles has a centuries-old history. It's no novice, but a veteran of Beaujolais wines. Despite the fact that Brouilly is sometimes unfairly dismissed by true wine connoisseurs, this Brouilly delivers a dazzling spectacle. The Gamay has truly flourished, ensuring the wine still has plenty of depth. The vibrant red fruit and peach contrast beautifully with the plump plums. The fine minerals provide ample zing. Don't drink Château de Corcelles Brouilly too cold; only then will the aromas truly shine.
