Just one of the best wines in the world. Nose is legend. The best soppy, soaked, dense, clear mid to late season red and black cherries of all time. Then comes the spice. And more spice. And more. This nose is perfect. It’s a life affirming perfume. On days that are this bad, a wine like this makes one momentarily forget the horrors going on outside our windows. The nose is a 10. It’s that simple. The palate is young but amazing. Grapey, concentrated red cherry fruit and such freshness, nimbleness and insane purity. Unreal inner mouth aromas. The decadence of 2022 is here but it’s also dialed back because this is Brisset. Good grip and acid and such sweetness. This is hedonistic but also cerebral in that the acids wash one’s palate on the finish and the finish is mostly mineral and limestone. So juicy and dense but also lithe. This is perfection. 10.0. It’s closed down now after a few hours. But the finish is just insanely long. .
