Château Thivin Côte de Brouilly '7 Vignes' 2024

• Region: Beaujolais
• Sub-Region: Côte de Brouilly
• Varieties: Gamay

Vineyard The "7 Vignes" is a blend of fruit from seven distinct plots located on the steep slopes of Mont Brouilly. The blue volcanic rock (diorite) of this site is unique, imparting an intense mineral drive and structural depth to the old Gamay vines.

Wine A benchmark of the region, this wine is intensely aromatic and structural. It offers a complex nose of blueberries, violets, and cracked black pepper. The palate is dense yet energetic, featuring a fine-grained tannic structure and a refreshing, stony mineral finish.
