Chateau Thivin Cote de Brouilly Gamay 2018
Wines taste best when shared with friends!
''Unwinding in the glass with scents of cherries, plums, licorice and rich soil tones, complemented by floral top notes that blossom as the wine sits in the glass. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and satiny, with a textural, enveloping profile, a deep and voluminous core, ripe but succulent acids and powdery structuring tannins.'' 93 Points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate Magazine
''Shimmering purple. Assertive dark berry, cherry, spicecake and floral pastille scents are complemented by suggestions of succulent herbs and licorice. Sappy and deeply concentrated on the palate, offering mineral-laced cherry and blackberry preserve flavors that stretch out and turn sweeter with aeration. Youthfully gripping tannins add framework to the finish, which lingers with outstanding, mineral-driven tenacity.'' 93 Points, Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media
Chateau Thivin is the oldest winery in Brouilly appellation having the oldest Gamay grapes grown on the soils of blue stones giving the wine spicy mineral, complex, powerful and elegant character. An age-worthy wine with a structure.
