Wines from the Cote-de-Brouilly are prized for their complexity and the 2016 from Domaine du Riaz doesn’t disappoint. Showing a floral nose mixed with racy red fruits and hints of leather and wood spice, this vintage is bright and forward and fresh on the palate though a bit long in the tooth for a Beaujolais.
