Nicole Chanrion has been crafting benchmark Côte de Brouilly since taking over from her father in 1988, making her one of Beaujolais's most experienced vignerons. Her old vines climb the volcanic slopes of Mont Brouilly, where blue granite soils impart a mineral intensity rare in the region. The 2016 has aged beautifully: silky Gamay with dark cherry, earth, and subtle spice, showing how serious Cru Beaujolais can evolve. Chanrion's traditional approach—whole-cluster fermentation, large oak aging—produces wines of remarkable depth. Drink now through 2027.

Antonio Galloni

93 points

"Vivid ruby. Red berry liqueur, floral and incense aromas, along with hints of allspice, licorice and smoky minerals. Silky and seamless on the palate, offering vibrant raspberry, cherry, spicecake and lavender flavors that deepen and become spicier with air. Smoothly balances richness and finesse and closes with strong, mineral-driven intensity, subtle tannins and excellent length."

Robert Parker

"The 2016 Cote de Brouilly was cropped at 52 hectoliters per hectare and undergoes carbonic maceration. There is something gentle and understated on the nose at first, and then it gradually opens with red cherries, crushed strawberry and hints of orange blossom. The palate is well balanced with supple tannin, very good depth and cohesion with a natural, refined, lightly spiced finish that will have you immediately beckoning for another sip. Excellent—this is even better than the 2015."

"Old vines and 10 months in wood have given this wine both concentration and great elegance. Ripe berry fruits have been smoothed by hints of toast, balanced acidity and ripe tannins. Drink this wine from mid-2018."

More about Domaine de la Voute des Crozes (Nicole Chanrion)

Nicole Chanrion broke barriers in Beaujolais as a woman winemaker starting in the 1970s. Now she runs six hectares in Côte de Brouilly with six generations of family tradition backing her up. Whole-cluster fermentation, large oak foudres, unfiltered—these are traditional Beaujolais made by someone who knows exactly what she's doing.
