Georges Descombes 2023 (75cl)

A red wine from Georges Descombes, who owns vineyards across several Beaujolais cru areas, beginning with Brouilly and Chiroubles and later adding Fleurie, Morgon and Regnie. His terroirs are among the finest of their appellations, with vines aged 70 years and older. The wines are compact, full, powerful and focused, with a little more tannin than some other Beaujolais producers. Red fruit such as cherries, berries and strawberries remains to the fore, and the wine is best served cool.
