Couleurs de Breuil Le Grolleau 2022 Review
Grolleau is an underappreciated grape variety local to the Loire Valley that's been gaining some steam among fans of of chillable reds. But this isn't just a typical fruit-forward, easy-drinking wine. Beyond the juicy notes of blackberries and raspberries, this bottle has an added layer of smoke, cured meats, and black pepper. This is a chillable red for those who aren't afraid of wine's savory side.
