DOMAINE BRUSSET
RHÔNE VALLEY, FRANCE
Excellence in the glass, lightness on the wallet: that's what you get with Domaine Brusset.
Witness their Secret Montmirail 2020, a powerhouse of a Gigondas that Vinous awarded 95 points ("deeply concentrated and yet distinctly energetic ... [with] a wonderfully long, penetrating finish") and which we're able to share with our Concierge Family for a best price of under $60 a bottle! Or their 93-point Gigondas Tradit Montmirail 2020 (Vinous: "vibrant ... succulent," a wine of "fine delineation and spicy lift”) which we're offering at just under $25 a bottle!
Both these wines hail from the Dentelles de Montmirail, a region universally regarded as having some of the most prestigious vineyards in all of Rhône. What the terroir of Montmirail brings is a nervy edge that adds life to these dense and brawny wines and – just as important – enables them to age far beyond that of a village-level Gigondas.
We admire Brusset’s enduring attention to detail, and that's one reason we’ve reached deep into their portfolio to bring you five more gems – all at a phenomenal 25% OFF: their Ventoux Boudalles 2021; their Rasteau La Bastide 2021; their CDR Laurent 2021; their Cairanne Vieilles Vignes 2021; and their Cairanne Travers Rouge 2021.
Excellence, value, ageability: is it any wonder that this star of Southern Rhône has rocketed to cult status among connoisseurs and collectors?
What keeps us coming back to them, though, are two qualities that are sometimes harder to see.
Brusset was among the first estates in the region to age its best wines in small barrels, and in the years since it has only refined its maturation process. Balance is the watchword. Fruit and wood complement one another, with neither fighting for the upper hand.
The other characteristic that doesn't show up in the glass is continuity. Founded by Andre Brusset in 1947, later handed down to son Daniel, and now in the expert hands of grandson Laurent, this is an estate whose mission has hardly changed over more than three quarters of a century.
Folks, this is the perfect time to buy by the case and stock your cellar. But hurry – no sooner do we procure an allocation of Brusset than the bottles are already on their way out the door: our last offer sold out in a matter of days.
And please take note: we always buy and source direct, so rest assured – your wines will arrive in your hands with pristine provenance.
