Brusset 2022 Gigondas Les Hauts de Montmirail

55% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah.
Von Steinterrassen direkt unter dem Kamm der "Dentelles de Montmirail".
Ausbau: 10 Monate in zu 50% neuen Barriques.

Sehr üppiges, komplexes, rotfruchtiges Aroma.
Rund und kraftvoll am Gaumen, mit viel reifer Frucht, aber auch knackiger, reifer Säure, die die überbordende Frucht schön ausbalanciert.
Langanhaltender Abgang mit Schoko- und Cassisnoten.
Braucht noch etwas Zeit, großes Reifepotenzial.

Suckling:
" Lots of cherries, raspberries, strawberries and some violets on the nose. Medium to full body with fine tannins. Round and well-balanced with juicy fruit at the center and a spicy edge. Focused and direct finish. Grenache, mourvedre and syrah." 93 Punkte

Decanter:
"Good dark colour in the glass and scents of warm blackberries. A Gigondas with good weight and smoothness on the palate. Fully ripe fruit is balanced by grippy tannins, moderate alcohol and good acidity. Destemmed, 50% aged in new oak barrels." 92 Punkte

Parker:
"Brusset's 2022 Gigondas Les Hauts de Montmirail—an assemblage of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 20% Mourvèdre—features pretty strawberry and cherry shadings alongside hints of garrigue and dried spices. From the domaine's higher-altitude vineyards, it's medium to full-bodied, creamysupple in feel, ripe and silky, with a juicy, lingering finish." 91-93 Punkte
