Nicole Chanrion, Domaine de la Voute des Crozes Cote de Brouilly 2021

100% Gamay. Nicole Chanrion took over the family domaine in 1988, she worked all 6.5 hectares entirely by herself, from pruning the vineyards and driving the tractors to winemaking and bottling, and is now joined by her son Romain. These are ultra traditional wines of Beaujolais:  hand harvesting, whole cluster fermentation, aging the wines in large oak foudres for at least nine months, and bottling unfiltered. They retain a bountiful berry aroma and briary, spicy red fruit on the palate.
