Bret Brothers La Soufrandiere Domaine de Beaujolais-Leynes Bien-Venu in X-tremis Rouge 2009
Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceSpicy, meaty, leesy, floral, cherry, red plum, mineral and licorice root aromas with a strong Band-Aid streak. Fresh, supple, elegant and juicy dry palate. Chalky, cherry, cranberry, gamey, smoky leather, tobacco, Band-Aid and celery salt flavours. Good freshness and fruit but has a strong streak of Brettanomyces for such a young wine. Drink now while the Bret is still festering.Tasted: 19 October 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
