Note di degustazione
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin La Brunelle, is the wine Bénigne de Surrel's grandfather served to visitors instead of his Grand Crus because he was so proud of it. The wine includes one-sixth whole bunches and around 80% new oak (because they have to replace old barrels). It has a tightly knit bouquet, less expressive than the Aux Corvées. The palate is medium-bodied, slightly lactic in texture. Not as deep, La Brunelle shows a touch of piquancy on the finish.

Informazioni sul produttore
Based in Gevrey-Chambertin, this domaine has a long history and impressive vineyards (with over five hectares of Grand Cru), but has long been considered an under-performer. Today, however, the Bouygues brothers (of Montrose and Clos Rougeard) have taken ownership and change is afoot.
