Domaine Ruet Cote de Brouilly Beaujolais 2019

Subtle hints of dried fig infusing the black cherry fruit. The palate is sweet and lively on the entry. This is a simple, playful but yes, delicious Cote de Brouilly there will provide easy-drinking pleasure over the next couple of years

Four generations of the Ruet family have run this estate at the foot of Mont Brouilly since 1926. Domaine Ruet holds fast to the tradition of semi-carbonic maceration, employs integrated vine growing techniques and has harvested their vineyards by hand for over four generations. The wines are on point, each exhibiting the characteristics of their respective Cru and furthermore, the distinctive terroirs within.

The Cote de Brouilly boasts higher elevations, comparable to those of Chiroubles, and therefore shares a similar elegance while remaining intense and powerful due to it's distinctive blue granite soil composition. Blueberry and iris notes are the take aways here.
