This partially wood-aged wine is soft, deliciously ripe and full of blackberry-jelly flavors. A blend of fruit from 11 parcels in Brouilly, it shines with fruitiness and perfumed acidity. Drink now.

Bursting with aromas of cherries, plums and blackberries, the 2018 Brouilly is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with lively acids, powdery tannins and a vibrant core of fruit. It's another fine performance for the rapidly improving Château de La Chaize.
