Chateau de Durette Les Charmes AOP Morgon
Morgon is the largest of Beaujolais’ cru appellations. Its wines are considered to be among the longest lived, most powerful of the region. This is definitely a muscular wine, with a dense, tannic framework. However, its powerful build is softened by a velvety texture and concentrated core of ripe dark fruit, giving this serious red wine lots of charm! 2024-2034–JB
Chateau de Durette Les Fournelles AOP Cote de Brouilly
The Côte de Brouilly vineyards lie on the Mount Brouilly slopes, on a bedrock of locally prized Brouilly blue stone soils so named for their bluish tint. The “Les Fournelles” cuvée is typical of the area, with its ripe fruit aromas, lively acidity, and firm structure. Chalky mineral hints mark the finish. 2023-2027–JB
