Brouilly, to me, is the fruitiest of the crus, and this is fruit in spades. So tangy and fruity. A bit of barnyard funk on the nose adds complexity. Very zingy and fruity in the mouth. Downright tangy!

UPDATE: After a couple hours of air, this is getting funkier and funkier. Clearly a low- or no-sulfite wine. I Vacuvin-ed a bit to see whether it will even be drinkable on night 2. My guess is it won’t be. (Further update: it was still good but it became clear to me that the funkiness was I was getting on night one was actually brett, which was somehow easier for me to identify the next night.) — 14 days ago

Where do I begin… this wine is stunning.

It is positively golden in color with concentrated notes of caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, creme brûlée, dried apricot, yellow apple,peach, nectarine, yellow cherry, kumquat, baked quince, lemon curd, honeysuckle, butter cream, lavender,, dried herbs, fennel, beeswax, honey, chamomile, hazelnut, praline, honey, & wet stones…

It’s textured!!! Waxy & mouth coating, full bodied, round, & opulent.

Alcohol is high at 14.5% ABV — it’s warming but balanced and integrated with the deeply rooted flavors and elevated, vibrant acidity. Yum!!!!!

Clear, pale ruby in color. On the nose, it's clean with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of blackberries, raspberries, violets, and smoke. On the palate, it's dry with high acidity, medium tannins, medium alcohol, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of cherry, pomegranate, asphalt, and earth with a long finish. This wine is intense, a little out of balance (needs to breathe or age), and complex. Overall, I would rate this wine as very good. — 2 months ago

Aromas of dark fruits, soft almost silky tannins. Earthy with a peppery finish. Very nice Burgnone Pinot. — 3 months ago
