Description

From: Charnay, Beaujolais, France
Varietal:
Gamay

Taste: The wine pours a saturated ruby with bluish edges. The nose leads with redcurrant, wild blackberry, and crushed violets layered over savory undertones of iron and dried herbs. On the palate, it’s precise and vibrant, with a taut line of acidity cutting through dark berry fruit, sour cherry, and a flicker of black pepper. The volcanic soils express themselves through a firm, stony structure and subtle smokiness. Tannins are fine but present, carrying through to a long, linear finish with notes of granite and licorice root.



Pairing: Gamay from the Côte de Brouilly, with its mineral backbone and vibrant acidity, pairs well with dishes that balance earth, brightness, and texture. Start with general pairing principles: choose foods that highlight acidity, lean proteins, and savory herbal or umami notes. 

About: Jean-Paul Brun is a highly regarded winemaker from Beaujolais, renowned for his dedication to traditional winemaking and minimal intervention techniques. In 1979, he established Domaine des Terres Dorées in Charnay, a village in the southern region of Beaujolais.
