Terres Dorees Beaujolais l'Ancien Vieilles Vignes 2022 750ml

"Jean-Paul Brun’s 2022 Beaujolais “Cuvée l’Ancien” Vieilles Vignes is a fine example of the vintage, but it is a young and structured wine (like a Cru) and will need some cellaring time before it starts to drink with generosity. The youthful nose offers up a bright and precise blend of cherries, sweet cranberries, vinesmoke, pigeon, a complex base of soil, a dollop of fresh thyme and a topnote of rose petals. On the palate the wine is bright, deep and full-bodied, with impressive transparency and grip, moderate tannins and fine balance on the long and tangy finish. Give this a few years of bottle age to blossom. 2026-2040+. 91+ Points" John Gilman View from the Cellar
