3*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

“The estate’s venerable 80-year-old vines still have much to offer and deserve the full appreciation of lovers of great Brouilly wines. David Duthel brings out the best in them and has once again made a strong impression with this captivating 2015, which evokes Provence with its generosity. The nose, of rare elegance, evokes candied cherry, raspberry, and violet. The palate offers plenty of body, power, and volume, supported by fine tannins and a mineral backbone that ensures balance and enhances its length.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)

About the wine:

The estate’s venerable 80-year-old vines still have much to offer and deserve the full attention of lovers of great Brouilly wines. David Duthel brings out the best in them and has once again made a strong impression with this captivating 2015, which evokes Provence with its generous character. The nose, of rare elegance, evokes candied cherry, raspberry, and violet. On the palate, it offers plenty of body, power, and volume, supported by fine tannins and a mineral backbone that ensures balance and enhances its length.

About the estate:

Founded in 1926 north of Mont Brouilly, this family-owned estate covers 21 hectares, with plots in four crus: Brouilly, Côte-de-Brouilly, Régnié, and Morgon. A sure bet in the Beaujolais region: the first “ Favorite ” was a 1984 vintage, and many others have followed. David Duthel took over the estate in 2010, which also operates a wine merchant business.

Rated Estate (2022 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Cathy Duthel and her husband David Duthel took over from Jean-Paul Ruet, who expanded bottled wine sales at this estate founded in 1926. Adhering to traditional semi-carbonic winemaking methods, the Ruet estate adapts to the profile of each vintage, partially destemming depending on the year, aging in oak or in tanks, and performing punch-downs and racking to bring out the maximum fruit character. Meticulous work in the vineyards highlights the harmony between the soil and the Gamay grape. The extensive and highly consistent range can be explored in a well-stocked tasting room.
