Domaine Brusset, Tradition Le Grand Montmirail, Gigondas, 2013

The 2013 vintage was marked by coulure, resulting in a small crop. This is very full-bodied. It still has succulent fruit on the palate, mostly strawberry, and is taking on woody herbs, smoke, worked leather and menthol. Mature now, but won't fall apart any time soon. Food-friendly, great price.
