🏰Château Thivin's Côte de Brouilly Cuvée La Chapelle 2021 is a 【classic expression of old-fashioned Beaujolais, showcasing crunchy, smoky minerality and pure, bright Gamay fruit】. This wine comes from steep, south-facing slopes at the top of Mont Brouilly, with old Gamay Noir vines on volcanic diorite soil. The 2021 vintage highlights the Côte's signature minerality, offering smoky nuances from the first sip. Expect aromas of purple flowers and herbs, with a delightful complexity. The palate is energetic, with fine texture and length, offering juicy red fruit, tangy acidity, and a subtle structure. It's a light and perfumed red, with low alcohol and a fine, energetic style. 🍴 This elegant Beaujolais pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. Consider chicken and turkey, veal, pork, or pasta. It's also excellent with Bresse poultry with cream, Lyon cuisine, cured meats, or a starter terrine. For an Asian touch, try it with Cantonese roast duck, char siu (BBQ pork), or even a light mushroom stir-fry. 🥂 Ideal for a relaxed dinner with friends, a picnic, or as a versatile wine for a casual gathering. Its approachable yet complex nature makes it a crowd-plepleaser and a great introduction to Cru Beaujolais.
