Clos de la Bruyère‌ ‌‘Elements’

The palate is dark‑fruited, structured, and quietly wild, opening with black cherry, mulberry, and red‑plum skinwrapped in the natural depth of this teinturier Gamay. A mid‑palate of spice, dried flowers, and a faint smoky‑mineral edge reflects both the Chaudenay variety and the silex‑rich soils. The texture is silky yet firm, with round, earthy tannins shaped by the short maceration and year‑long élevage in old barrels. The finish is long, savory, and slightly balsamic, tapering with dark‑fruit skin, warm spice, and flinty minerality.
