Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Garganelli with lamb shoulder ragu, fava beans, and shaved Pecorino
  • Citrus-marinated whole roasted chicken

Daniel Bouland, a top producer in the commune of Morgon, brings us another exceptional Cru Beaujolais from Côtes de Brouilly. Feminine and flirty, with beautiful crushed raspberry fruit and fresh flower aromas, this is bright, supple, unfiltered, and very hedonistic. So versatile, food-friendly, and altogether irresistible. Buy this by the case - take one sip and you'll know why!
