Côte de Brouilly
situation
The vintage Côte de Brouilly covers four villages: St Lager, Odenas, Quincié, and Cercié.
Even if the hill of Brouilly is 485 m high, the vineyards only grow between 280 m and 400 m high for the southern and south-western slopes and up to 350 m high for the northern slopes.
TRENEL’s Côte de Brouilly is chosen mainly from St Lager (eastern slope) and from Cercié, a spot called “la Glacière” (northern slope) which gives later but very well timbered wines
tasting
A brilliant ruby in colour, this Côte de Brouilly offers plenty of elegance and finesse and a pure and strict nose characteristic of the appellation. The long, richly spicy palate is underlined by firm tannins. This is a fresh, supple wine that will beguile Côte de Brouilly lovers for several years to come.
HOW TO DRINK AND SERVE
Côte de Brouilly is served between 13 C° and 15 C°((55-57 F°) and goes well with cold pork , rabbit stew, or red meat.
