This vintage embodies Mee Godard's passion for the authentic expression of the Côte de Brouilly terroir. The 2022 vintage of Métamorphoses Côte de Brouilly is an exciting exploration of the unique terroir of the Côte de Brouilly, located in the heart of Beaujolais. Whole bunches are largely retained, and macerations last several weeks, with pump-overs and punch-downs adapted vintage by vintage. Maturation follows in concrete, foudre, demi-muids and barrels, depending on the cuvée. A wine to taste with relish to explore all the splendour of this appellation.

Gamay is a red grape variety that has a home in Beaujolais, just south of Burgundy in France. It's a floral, fruity and gently rustic light bodied red that is very food friendly and quite similar to Pinot Noir. Expect aromas and flavours of pink rose, violets, blossoms, pomegranate, wild berries, fresh earth and tea. The best expressions are usually made from grapes grown in 10 different cru's and are a fantastic and affordable alternative to high end red Burgundy.
