Chateau Moulin Favre, Brouilly "Cuvee Celina Vielles Vignes", Beaujolais, France, 2022
Gamay
BLACKBERRY & GOJI, ALLSPICE, CHISELED MINERAL
Embodying Moulin Favre’s propensity toward broader-shouldered, riper, more sumptuous offerings of Cru Beaujolais while retaining the freshness, prettiness, and aromatic prowess long cherished in the hinterlands south of Burgundy proper, this old vine cuvée boldy represents the Mont Brouilly (an extinct volcano!) and its signature granite terroir – snappy, dense, and ambrosial.
Serving Suggestions: Duck & pork terrine w/shallots, five spice, thyme, & port. Autumnal mac & cheese w/ savory pumpkin purée, toasted pepitas, breadcrumbs, & black sesame seeds.
