These old Brouilly are really incredible! Intense notes of peppery wild strawberries, truffle evolution, undergrowth, dried flowers, blood orange.. the finish is persistent, like the fragrances of a perfume, intertwining fine tannins and endless acidity veins, with light bitters welcome.
Ces vieux Brouilly sont vraiment incroyables! Notes intenses de fraises de bois poivrées, évolution truffe, sous-bois, fleurs séchées, orange sanguine.. la finale est rémanente, tel les fragrances d’un parfum, entrelaçants tanins fins et nervures d’acidité sans fin, avec de légers amers bienvenus. — 4 years ago

2024 vintage. Last tasted 5.24.26 (9.3) and 3.18.26 (9.3). 7 months later, taking my own advice and picking up two more cases since we have 5 bottles left from the original, 12-pack case. Did I mention that it isn't even on the wine list? $46 a bottle resto cost. Absolutely shredding for the price and locale. 10.18.26. — 13 days ago

Earthy mushroom and bright red cherry over red currant and walnut. Surprisingly fruit forward for a French burgundy but tasty! — 14 days ago
2022 vintage, 84% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Cabernet Franc. This 16 hectares Pessac-Léognan vineyard ( 13 ha of red, and 3 of white)was just bought by the Domaines de Moncets group, which is moving to the left bank for the first time, as they already own Moncets and Chambrun in Lalande de Pomerol, La Bastidette in Montagne Saint- Émilion and the Saint-Emilion grand cru La Voûte. It seems that they won't have to start from scratch, given the quality of this 2022, with black cherries, blackberries, and Pessac-Léognan spiciness. Impeccable balance, concentration, purity of fruit, and serious complexity at this price point. Nice licorice finish. Great value, and an estate to watch. Abv. 14,5%. — 4 months ago

2023 vintage. Last tasted 5.19.25 (9.2). Popped for the FLB. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes and one hour. Medium body. Ripe, frontal fruits today with the astringency buttressing the endeavor on the backside. Promise ahead but still very slightly out of sorts. Casually delicious. Critically optimistic. 10.30.26. — a day ago
