Brouilly Vieilles Vignes Domaine de la Grand'Cour 2022
Jean-Louis Dutraive at Domaine de la Grand'Cour is a Beaujolais legend — a quiet perfectionist whose Fleurie and Brouilly capture the soul of Gamay on granite. His wines age beautifully, combining floral delicacy, mineral tension and a silky texture that defies convention.
Dutraive's Brouilly Vieilles Vignes comes from old Gamay on granite and diorite soils at the base of Mont Brouilly. The 2022 is generous and fleshy — dark cherry, raspberry, a warm spice note and soft tannins. A beautifully made, naturally vinified Brouilly with real depth and charm.
