2020 Jean-Paul Dubost Brouilly Pierreux [JS91][WE90]

"Aromas of brambles, cherries, earth and sweet spices. Lemon zest, too. Medium-bodied with fine, powdery tannins and bright acidity. Vibrant redcurrant character with a firm, mineral edge at the finish." 

"A finely textured, ripe and juicy wine, this highlights swathes of cherry and spice flavors. It comes from one of the top sectors of Brouilly, showing quality and will be ready to drink from 2023." 

"The wine is powerful yet briskly mineral-driven—cool-toned and stony—with tight-grained dark fruit and tons of spice; indeed, notwithstanding its lighter emotional pitch and tannic structure, it may strike one as the southerly country cousin of Morey-Saint-Denis."
