Chateau Thivin Reverdon Brouilly 2022

100% Gamay Noir

Off of a minimum of 45 year old vines.  Reverdon, which faces Mont Brouilly, is a particularly sandy vineyard with solid pink granite to anchor its vines—a dream for older roots to dig deep. This bottling is classic Brouilly, balanced and old-school, and showcases the beauty of Gamay grown in its southernmost cru, on a south-facing slope.  Aromas of cherries, candied berries and pomegranate mingled with sweet spices and cherry blossoms. Medium-bodied, it envelops the palate with a velvety texture, courtesy of its fine talc-like tannins. At its core lies an ensemble of plushy fruits interwoven with piquant notes of candied ginger and subtle floral undertones.  13% ABV
