What We Think
Vin Chicago: 91+ Points
(9/2026) We've been big fans of this cuvée from Jean-Claude Lapalu for quite a few vintages, and the 2024 bottling is wonderful. The Gamay grapes for this wine come from several special parcels in Brouilly with a vine age between 60 and 90 years. This vintage is bright, juicy and refreshing but balanced by the fuller and more savory notes we love in this cuvée, and while it is irresistible now, it could easily age for a few more years.
