The appellation name in French means "on the flanks of Mount Brouilly" and the wines with this name only come from vines grown on the steep slopes of the hill. The ground on Mount Brouilly is made up of an extremely hard blue volcanic rock unique in Europe.

The 15 hectares of vines are planted on the eastern, southern and southwestern slopes of the hill. They give very personalized wines with a red robe with purple-blue tints and discreet aromas of violet and peony. In the mouth there is a wonderful balance between silky tannins and small wild red berries such as wild strawberry and blueberry. The end of mouth is long and peppery.

This Côte de Brouilly is charming and lively in its youth becoming noble and elegant after a few years (3 to 8 years). It is the perfect wine to drink with hot starters, meat or fowl in sauce and goat cheeses.
