2022 Mommessin Cote de Brouilly Les Grandes Mises, Beaujolais, France

The appellation “Côte-de-Brouilly” was first authorized in 1934 with the vineyard owners on the Brouilly hillside concerned that the wine would lose its identity with the recent extension of the “Brouilly” appellation. Côte-de-Brouilly is considered richer and more structured in style than Brouilly.

Deep purple. Aromas show pleasant spices and small fruits such as blackcurrant and blueberry. The mouth, dominated by ripe black fruits aromas, reveals a nice balance and silky tannins. Rich and generous with an impressive long finish.
