Wine AdvocateThe 2014 Brouilly Cuvee Vieilles Vignes, which undergoes exactly the same vinification as the Beaujolais Villages, has a wonderful nose of blackberry, briary wild hedgerow and hints of dried violet petals. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit mixed with licorice on the entry. There are fine tannins underpinning this Brouily, and though it feels a little clammed up on the finish so close to bottling, it is very elegant and composed.

Winter Cru Beaujolais recommendations

Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Cote du Py 2014
Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Cote du Py 2014
.The ample wine, dark ruby ​​cherry-scented, with soft tannins comes from an alluvial soil called “les grands cras” south of the cru Morgon, an altitude of 250 meters. It is refined in bottles in the spring. Vineyard’s age: 60 years Vinification: maceration of the whole grapes for 10 days Bottling in March I’m stated my job in 1989, after obtaining my diploma in oenology and wine-growing. My estate is located in the tiny village of Morgon in the heart of Beaujolais crus. I’m working on 19 hectares with 3 guaranteed vintage of red wines, (Beaujolais villages 5 hectares; Régnié 1 hectare; Morgon 13 hectares) Born into a family of generations of wine growers, my passion is reflected in your glass when you taste these typical wines produced from my vineyards. The ancient art of wine-growing, the grape picking by hand and the traditional vinification allow us to offer, year after year wines appreciated by connaisseurs. The « gamay noir a jus Blanc » is the single variety of vine, for all red wines.

Georges Duboeuf Moulin à Vent Domaine de la Vigne Romaine 2014
Georges Duboeuf Moulin à Vent Domaine de la Vigne Romaine 2014
Brilliant sustained bilberry color. Intense aromas, dominated by jammy dark berries and delicate notes of oak, vanilla and toasting. Hearty, full and fleshy, this Moulin a Vent reveals a good tannin structure with fine, distinctive tannins that suggest good aging potential. Serve as an accompaniment to assertive cheeses and charcuterie or alongside ahi tuna, ham, or roast chicken.

Jean-Marc Burgaud Régnié Vallières 2016
Jean-Marc Burgaud Régnié Vallières 2016
Grown in sandy, stony soil, this wine comes from the youngest Beaujolais Crus (created in 1988) and is characterized by fruitiness, suppleness, and roundness. It is feminine with fine, light tannins.

Domaine Marcel Lapierre Morgon 2016
Domaine Marcel Lapierre Morgon 2016
Planted on these poor, acidic soils, Gamay expresses notes of violet and aromas of black cherries. Morgon develops deeper notes after some years approaching its cousin pinot.

Damien Coquelet Chiroubles 2015
Damien Coquelet Chiroubles 2015
Damien Coquelet bottled his first vintage, 2007, at just 20 years old! The step-son of Georges Descombes, Damien has worked alongside him since early childhood. Learning everything from Descombes in the vines and shared cellar has instilled the same values in Damien's work ethic: organic viticulture, hand harvesting, native yeasts, zero intervention in the cellar and little if any sulfur at bottling. Damien currently works nine hectares, 2.5 of which he owns. The breakdown is as follows: -One hectare of Beaujolais -Two hectares of Beaujolais-Villages -Two hectares of Chiroubles

Guy Breton Morgon Vielles Vignes 2015
Guy Breton Morgon Vielles Vignes 2015
There's great fruit here, raspberries and pomegranates, a traditional, rustic, spicy nose, stony freshness from the schist soil, and a refreshing acidity. Eighty-year-old vines give this Guy some muscle, too.

Fabien Collonge Chiroubles L'Aurore des Cotes 2014
Fabien Collonge Chiroubles L'Aurore des Cotes 2014
Floral and fruity. At dawn, Fabien Collonge likes to go in his vines perched above the village of Chiroubles, where the sun slowly illuminate the slopes by a magic morning. Food Pairings: Very good with poultry, grilled meat, ham and charcuterie, cheese.

Domaine Diochon Moulin á Vent Vieilles Vignes 2016
Domaine Diochon Moulin á Vent Vieilles Vignes 2016
Diochon's Moulin-à-Vent is juicily delicious yet there is a majesty to it. It is full-blown and full-bodied, yet it has a lush, supple, swallowable texture. No hard edges. No astringency. No heat. Moulin-à-Vent is supposed to be the grandest of the region's Grands Crus, and here you sense a certain grandeur throughout the taste experience. And don't overlook the visuals. Diochon's color is always a sight to see. The color, like the flavor, is cassis-like.
