Domaine Brusset, Gigondas 2019 'Le Grand Montmirail'
£135.00
| Another superb vintage for Laurent Brusset with this formidable wine. He has combined power with elegance expertly. Sweet fruit combines perfectly with balanced structure. The tannins glide and there is a wonderful mouthfeel. It will ideally need 3-5 years from release but last for 10-15. As always, one of the appellation's greatest values. |

Critic Reviews:
'Really expressive nose that just shouts violets and garrigue with a mineral note. Elegant tannins and a really good level of fresh acidity support the concentrated mid palate – attractive.' 16.5/20 (jancisrobinson.com)
'Deep red in the glass. Suggestions of white pepper and _garrigue complement pungent red and dark berry aromas. Sappy and expansive in the mouth, o!ering appealingly sweet raspberry and cherry flavors along with smoky mineral and lavender accents. Shows a firm cut on the long, clinging finish, which features dusty tannins and repeating floral and spice notes.' 92/100 (vinous.com) |
