Domaine le Briseau “Patapon" Rouge 2022
- In stock, ready to ship
This 100% Pineau d'Aunis from Nathalie Gaubicher is one of the most-loved wines at our shop. Vines are 60 years old, on average. Foot-trod, semi-carbonic maceration, with a small sulfur addition only at bottling. Lip-smacking blueberry, violets, white pepper, and a sublime mix of delicate fruit with earthy crunch. It's lightly fruited and nervy, but it has an underlying structure and texture that elevates it from something to chill and chug to something you can savor and contemplate. But don't hesitate to gulp it if you can't help yourself. If you have coulrophobia like me, be assured that the figure on the label is a mischievous fool — not a clown —and his motto is "Vigneron Non Conforme" or "Non Conforming Winemaker." I can get behind that fool. Jonathan Kemp
