"As I've written before, located in Odénas, Laurent Martray works with old vines in Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly. Winemaking is traditional, with a proportion of whole bunch, two-week macerations and comparatively long élevage in used barrels and foudres. The results are deep, flavorful, classically structured wines that evolve gracefully in bottle. This is resolutely traditional Beaujolais, harkening back to the wines of yesteryear, before carbonic maceration, the natural wine movement and the craze for Beaujolais nouveau changed how this historic region was perceived."

"The 2022 Côte de Brouilly Les Feuillées, aged in foudres, evokes aromas of black cherries, licorice, violets, brown spices and vine smoke. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a layer of sappy cherry that coats the mouth, pleasantly invigorated by ripe acids and a minuscule but effective hint of dissolved gas. The interplay between the flesh and the framing of sturdy, suave tannins brings dimension, culminating in a lengthy, mouth-watering finish. This is a fine wine from Laurent."
