Georges Duboeuf, Chiroubles (Beaujolais, France) 2009

May 19, 2010

By Gerald D. Boyd

Chiroubles is considered the most feminine of the crus. This 2009 from Duboeuf has a deep purple-ruby color, medium bouquet of ripe dark fruits with a subtle floral back note.  The flavors are textured and elegant with bracing acidity, refined tannins and impressive length through the finish.
