Note: Guide Hachette 1* Star (Very successful wine)
The Brouilly vintage benefits from the largest vineyard in Beaujolais, with 1,200 hectares of Gamay grapes that produce a highly renowned nectar on granite and alluvial sand soils. The minerality of the blue and pink granite so characteristic of the appellation gives it roundness and softness on the palate with subtle notes of red fruit on the nose. Superb!

Rated estate (2014 guide) Selected (An estate or producer that impressed us with one or more of its wines, but about which we cannot give an overall opinion on the style of the entire range)
About the estate:
Christophe Coquard founded his own wine merchant business in 2005. He offers a range of wines covering every Beaujolais appellation, and more recently those from the neighboring Mâconnais region. The labels are beautifully decorated, and the prices remain reasonable. The house did not present its 2008 wines as we had requested, but instead offered the more highly regarded 2009 vintage. In this vintage, several crus disappointed us, but the regional appellations were bursting with fruit."
