CotedeBrouillyLaChapelle2021ChateauThivin

A red colour with bluish reflections, and a subtle flavour of violet and peony. In the mouth it distinguishes itself with a lovely balance of silky tannins and wild red fruits such as wild strawberry or bilberry. The finish is long and peppery.

This Côte de Brouilly can be charming and lively in its early youth, and can equally become noble and elegant when laid down (three to eight years).

Chateau Thivin has to be one of the most iconic estates of the Beaujolais. Dating back to the 14th century, this modest but utterly beautiful chateau exudes history. The original 2 hectares, purchased by Zaccharie Geoffray in 1877, have grown to 24 hectares today, still owned by the Geoffray family. Claude-Edouard, and his wife, Sonja, are now in charge of the day-to-day running of the estate and wine-making. Determined to work as ecologically as possible, their programme of organic conversion has now been certified. The property is situated on the hillside of the Cote de Brouilly, with predominantly south-facing vineyards.
