Chateau Thivin Les Griottes de Brulhie 2024

Château Thivin’s 2024 Les Griottes de Brulhié is an organic Côte-de-Brouilly that brings together Gamay and Chardonnay in a fresh, finely structured red. Made by the Geoffray family, whose winemaking roots date to 1877, it stands out for its lively fruit, refined tannins and mineral character shaped by the appellation’s blue metadiorite soils.

Tasting Notes
Bright in appearance, the wine opens with aromas of cherry, wild strawberry and peony. On the palate, juicy red fruit meets fresh acidity, refined tannins and a distinctive mineral edge, with delicate spice carrying through to a lively finish. Its freshness and fruit make it appealing to enjoy young. The supplied information gives no specific cellar-ageing window.

Production
The original parcel sits on a steep, south- to southeast-facing slope, where shallow soils over blue metadiorite help give the wine its mineral energy. Vineyard work follows organic practices, and the grapes are harvested by hand. In the gravity-fed cellar, partial whole-cluster fermentation helps preserve freshness and varietal aromas; after pressing, the wine matures in oak barrels for seven to nine months.

Food & Serving
Serve with charcuterie, cured meats or lighter dishes that complement its bright red-fruit character and fresh finish. No serving temperature or decanting guidance is specified; serve lightly cool, and a brief decant can help the aromas open if enjoying it now.

Producer
