James Suckling
"Sweet melody of berries!"
"The expressive nose of red berries and summer flowers with a touch of blood orange draws you into this elegant, medium-bodied Cote-de-Brouilly, which has remarkably fine tannins for this difficult vintage. The finish is long and linear, with plenty of minerality, and the blood orange character accentuates the momentum. It's just beginning to reveal its true class." (James Suckling 2024)

Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine noté Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list, and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
In just a few vintages, the duo of Sébastien Dupré and Guillaume Goujon have asserted their confident, ambitious style. Long-time friends, they honed their skills with Frédéric Pourtalié at the Montcalmès estate for eight years, replacing cousin Vincent Guizard. After a few experiments, they signed their first vintage in 2015, with the emblematic cuvée 6.3.1 made from a blend of their parcels (60% L'Héronde, 30% Le Pavé, 10% Brûlhier).
