Description

The 2020 Moulin-à-Vent Les Brussellions has a much more backward, earthier nose than its peers. Maybe this is going through a sultry phase. The palate is a little stalky on the entry but fresh and has a strong salinity on the finish that I like. Give it 2-3 years in bottle.

Drink 2025 - 2036

A fine bright purple colour. The nose is a little meatier than Les Rouchaux, more clearly gamay from a noble terroir, without the elfin pinot note. Brussellions offers a notably greater weight of fruit. There are sufficient tannins, just enough acidity, and a very classical finish.Jasper Morris MW, InsideBurgundy.com (November 2021)
