Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Consistent throughout. The 2014 pours a slightly hazy purple/garnet color with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe and tart strawberry, blackberry, purple flowers, dried green herbs, horse blanket and rocky minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is medium. A Côte de Brouilly of great character. Drink now through 2034.

Black raspberry, red plum, moss, herbs, lilac and violet, crushed granite, asian spice. With a little air the floral/candied fruit side began to show. Wonderful perfume. Not as extracted as other CDBrouilly but still masculine in its tannin structure. Always killer
