Very deep cherry red. Aroma has complexity including leather, animal, oak, spices like clove, nutmeg, anise. Concentration. tannin. First time to taste matured Grolleau. Anne Claude Leflaive Clau de Nell Anjou Grolleau 18 @5049, Umem, 250629-250710 — 3 months ago

Brouilly, to me, is the fruitiest of the crus, and this is fruit in spades. So tangy and fruity. A bit of barnyard funk on the nose adds complexity. Very zingy and fruity in the mouth. Downright tangy!
UPDATE: After a couple hours of air, this is getting funkier and funkier. Clearly a low- or no-sulfite wine. I Vacuvin-ed a bit to see whether it will even be drinkable on night 2. My guess is it won’t be. (Further update: it was still good but it became clear to me that the funkiness was I was getting on night one was actually brett, which was somehow easier for me to identify the next night.) — 9 days ago
