Brusset is one of my favorite Gigondas producers, but the 2018 is not ready to drink. Even after being opened 2 hours, the wine did not come together. Hold for a few more years.

Truly a cheaper alternative to Chateauneuf du Pape. Similar flavors, cheaper price. Raspberry, pepper, black fruit. Nice 13.5% abv. Many excellent years left in this one.

Complex with Red Cherry & Red Currant - Peppery with hints of Leather & Licorice. Med Acidity with bold Tannins. Finishes with wet leather notes. An excellent Gigondas at a good price
