Domaine Brusset's 2019 Côtes du Rhône Laurent B. is an opaque ruby, Grenache-dominant blend that also contains unspecified amounts of Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre. Uncorked and poured, this bottle was serially tasted over two hours, during which time it continued to evolve for the better. Offering a core of dark plum and raspberry fruit that is accented with smoked meat, mushrooms and Provençal herbs, it is a medium-bodied, fresh, softly tannic red without detectable alcohol (13%) or wood. Solid on the mid-palate and medium in length on the back end, this is an easy-drinker that represents good value. At this stage I would recommend splash (or Vinturi) decantation and an hour or more of aeration if possible. Drink now-2024.
