Château de la Chaize - Côte de Brouilly 2022

4/5 (1 review)

"A fruity Côtes de Brouilly that whets the appetite!

This Côte de Brouilly is a real delicacy, with small red fruits exploding on the palate, enhanced by floral notes (peony, rose). It's a charming, consensual wine that's perfect for any occasion!

Château de la Chaize - Brouilly lieu-dit La Chaize Monopole 2020

"It's hard not to get a refill!

"An extraordinary spicy, balsamic complexity covers the blackberries (but not too ripe) of this concentrated, imposing Brouilly. The texture is so silky, it's hard to tear yourself away! The very long, intense finish never ceases to expel fruit. Should age very well". (James Suckling 2022)

Château de la Chaize - Fleurie Lieu-dit La Chapelle des bois rouge 2020

"A bouquet of fresh fruit and a long, elegant finish.

"Very well structured, restrained and elegant with a fresh, delicate personality for this warm vintage, this is a really striking Fleurie. I love the interplay between tart cherry and fine tannins on a concentrated, elegant palate. It develops slowly in the glass as it airs. Very long and elegant finish". (James Suckling 2023)

Château de la Chaize - Brouilly 2021

"Crunchy, tasty, ready to eat".

"I love the delicate aromas of red fruits and wild flowers in this fresh, subtle Brouilly. It's only medium-bodied, but has a lovely balance of fine tannins, wet-stone minerality and elegant acidity. The long finish is well supported by well-built tannins." (James Suckling 2023).

Château de la Chaize - Brûlhier 2018

3.9/5 (7 reviews)

"More often in the spotlight for its brouillys, the domaine makes a strong impression with this admirable Côte-de-Brouilly, born of 60-year-old vines rooted in bluestone soil (1 ha). The nose elegantly blends morello cherry, blackberry and spices with a fine, racy woodiness (18 months in barrel) and a more mineral touch. The palate is straightforward on the attack, then develops with finesse, without excess, but with great depth, around delicate, silky tannins enveloped by luscious fruit and woody, cocoa-tinged tones. A bottle that will age serenely". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

Château de la Chaize - Combiliaty 2017

4/5 (3 reviews)

"Parcel-by-parcel vinification, 90% de-stemmed, "Burgundian" style, for this racy brouilly with rich, precise aromas of black fruits, peonies, spices... The wine is full-bodied, velvety, silky and elegant". (Bourgogne Aujourd'hui n° 152 - April-May 2020). From one of the greatest terroirs in the Brouilly appellation, where vines range in age from 50 to 115 years, Combiliaty is a parcel-based cuvée offering great richness and fullness, with a gourmet bouquet of black fruits. Powerful and virile, this is a wine made for laying down.

Château de la Chaize - Les Amants Magnifiques 2017

3/5 (2 reviews)

This cuvée "Les Amants Magnifiques" is named after a comedy-ballet by Molière with a libretto by Jean-Baptiste Lully (authors contemporary with the construction of the Château). This blend of the arts is the source of inspiration for this cuvée, made mostly from the oldest vines, over sixty years old, offering a pure expression of the Brouilly terroir.

"The Brouilly Vieilles Vignes is well-managed, with a slightly extracted structure, but it remains coherent". (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2011 - RVF). An intense wine, dominated by black fruits (blackberries) with floral and spicy notes, beautiful complexity and maturity. Up for grabs!
