Dupré-Goujon Côte de Brouilly “Héronde” 2023
$38
The Domaine Dupré-Goujon is quietly becoming a leading domaine in the Beaujolais. Winemaker Sebastien Dupré and Guillaume Goujon are crafting outstanding wines that elevate the potential of the gamay grape. Part of the Dupré-Goujon recipe is an extended elevage (for their reds) of over two years, first in barrels, and then in tanks. This is nearly unheard-of patience in the Beaujolais, but the results speak for themselves.
The Côte de Brouilly “Héronde” is deeper and richer. If Héronde’s label bore a musical notation, it would include a bass clef. There is darker fruit in this cuvée, and the wine fills the mouth in a way that is rarely found in the Beaujolais.
