In a few words ...
This AOC Gigondas red wine is a blend of 55% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre and 20% Syrah. The vines, planted in terraces, have evolved on a stony-clay terroir beneath the great Jurassic limestone bar of the Dentelles de Montmirail. After hand-picking and selective sorting, the grapes were crushed and destemmed, and underwent a separate 21-day cuvaison. The wine is then aged in oak barrels.

An excellent Gigondas, perfectly representative of the appellation and beyond. Tasted young, with a good cassoulet from the Gers, it deserves to age a few years, in my opinion, and obviously according to taste. It will develop much more in the next five to ten years of cellaring. Well done to the domaine.

Les Hauts de Montmirail, the phrase cuvée from Domaine Brusset in Gigondas. I buy it every year. A true reference in Gigondas

A very fine Rhône wine, round and fruity, which deserves a few more years in the cellar to be at its best.

What power! The color is dense, the nose spicy, the palate fleshy. A fine discovery

Domaine Brusset
Domaine Brusset is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 10 wines available to purchase, including the wine Les Hauts de Montmirail 2022.
Appellation
Gigondas
The appellation Gigondas is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Brusset and its 10 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
