Brouilly Pisse-Vieille

Most of my friends like wine. But unlike me, most of them don’t want to talk about it all the time. But when this bottle hit the table recently, it was a conversation stopper for all the right reasons. Fragrant, full of just-squashed blueberry fruits, silky-soft and ridiculously moreish, there was a fight for top ups (I won). 2015 was a brilliant vintage in the Beaujolais region so worth splashing out on if you like your wines on the medium-bodied, juicy side.
