Domaine Brusset Domaine Brusset Gigondas Tradition Le Grand Montmirail 2022 750ml

Beautifully pure, with ripe red and black fruit, peppery herb, and violet notes, the 2023 Gigondas Tradition Le Grand Montmirail hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a pure, graceful mouthfeel, and a great finish. (Jeb Dunnuck)

The 2022 Gigondas Tradition Le Grand Montmirail is the classic cuvée from this great estate, and it’s based on 70% Grenache and 10% each of Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. It has rocking purity in its red and black fruits as well as peppery, floral nuances. Medium-bodied on the palate, with fine tannins, a layered, seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish, it’s going to round into form with just a year or two of bottle age and drink nicely through 2027 if well stored. (Jeb Dunnuck)

Exuberant notes of boysenberry and red cherry licorice offer an herbal lift in this juicy, plump version. Hibiscus and lavender accents add a pretty floral edge, with incense smoke on the finish. High-toned and glossy, this is grounded by ample graphite details and fine-grained tannins for an elegant structure. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault. Drink now through 2030. 5,000 cases made, 350 cases imported. (Kristen Bieler)
