Chateau des Tours Brouilly Vieilles Vignes 2021 (Chateau La Nerthe)

Drink now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant before serving. The historic Chateau des Tours has been producing wine for over a century and is known for its exceptional quality and commitment to traditional winemaking practices. The vineyards of Chateau des Tours are located on steep hillsides where the soils are especially rich in granite and schist. The vineyards are farmed using organic and biodynamic methods with a focus on sustainability and preserving the natural balance of the ecosystem. This Brouilly is crafted from Gamay grapes harvested from estate vines that are over 50 years old. The age of the vines helps to ensure rich, concentrated fruit with plenty of well-developed tannins and complex flavours. After vinification the wine is aged in oak barrels for several months, allowing it to develop an even more complex and nuanced flavor profile. As soon as you pour out a glass, you’ll notice the enticing aromas of crushed wild berries, dark cherries, and sultry spices. On the palate the wine is medium-bodied with a bright zip of acidity to complement the firm tannins. Expect intense and concentrated flavours which culminate in a long and satisfying finish, making this an ideal partner for a cheese and charcuterie board.
