Bret Brothers - Mâcon-Igé Climat "Les Vernayes" 2019
4.6/5 (7 reviews)
From the beautiful limestone terroir of Igé, this confidential newcomer is a beautiful deep yellow gold. The white Mâcon-Igé delivers citrus zest aromas (mandarins), very fresh aromas accompanied by more floral notes. On the palate, the structure is very fruity. A wine of fruit and pleasure, vinified mainly in vats. A very pretty wine in 2019.
Bret Brothers - Saint-Véran Climat "En Combe" 2018
4/5 (14 reviews)
88/100 Burghound
Located on the exceptional south-facing Chasselas hillside, the old ploughed vines of Saint-Véran Climat "En Combe" extract the minerality and fruit of this great terroir. The soil's high iron oxide content favors a high ageing potential. Always a little reserved when young, this great wine opens up after 2-3 years in bottle.

5/5 (5 reviews)
15,5/20 RVF
-
91/100 Robert Parker
"Offering aromas of orange oil, golden orchard fruit and fresh mint, the 2018 Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche is medium to dense, bright and lively, with a delicately satiny attack, succulent acids and an open, charming profile." (Wine Advocate 2020)
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Loché Climat "La Colonge" 2018
4.2/5 (12 reviews)
15,5/20 RVF
-
88/100 Robert Parker
"Vinified in old barrels, La Colonge reveals scents of blood orange, and a mouth full of energy, still very ripe ripe and with marked bitters ". (Guide RVF 2021). The smallest appellation in the Mâconnais, Pouilly-Loché reveals Chardonnays of great aromatic finesse.
Bret Brothers - Mâcon-Chardonnay Les Crays 2017
3.9/5 (9 reviews)
15/20 RVF
Minerality is the word that characterizes this Mâcon-Chardonnay "Les Crays". Dense, aromatic with notes of flint, fresh almond and citrus zest, the palate is fleshy and precise. This gastronomic wine, with its sublime potential, will sublimate your dishes such as sushi or Burgundy parsley ham. The very expression of terroir!
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevrières 2017
4/5 (3 reviews)
15,5/20 Bettane & Desseauve
On the Grand Terroir de Chaintré, this very old parcel benefits from soil rich in iron oxide, producing millerandé (seedless) grapes. This Pouilly-Fuissé cuvée is generous in ripe fruit, with hints of pear. The palate is harmonious, revealing both power and finesse, enhanced by a beautiful minerality. Great ageing potential !
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Fuissé Le Clos Reyssié 2017
4.5/5 (4 reviews)
16,5/20 RVF
With its golden color, Clos Reyssié reveals honeyed, lemony aromas. Well-balanced on the palate, with good density and substance. A great terroir with southern accents!
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Fuissé Cuvée Terres de Vergisson 2016
4.7/5 (3 reviews)
90/100 Decanter
This cuvée comes from probably the most mineral village in the appellation. It stands out for its marked, almost vibrant mineral tension, which seems to ricochet off the protected rocky cirque of the Roches de Solutré and Vergisson. Great Vergisson!
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Fuissé En Carementrant 2015
3.8/5 (9 reviews)
92/100 Decanter
"A complex, impressive wine with notes of red apple and stony soil. This cuvée, made from old vines grown at altitude and facing south, reveals a richness of juicy fruit and a taut minerality on the palate." (Decanter Magazine)
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche 2015
4.1/5 (7 reviews)
92/100 Decanter
"La Roche reveals a complex bouquet of lemon oil, Grand Marnier and white flowers that leads to a full-bodied palate, with a minerality similar to En Carémentrant but with a little less power." (Decanter Magazine)
Bret Brothers - Pouilly-Loché Les Mûres 2014
4.6/5 (5 reviews)
14,5/20 RVF
"The Pouilly-Loché Les Mûres has good staying power, and presents a perfect balance between fleshiness, vivacity and very subtle ageing." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2017 - RVF) In organic reconversion since 2013, the "Les Mûres" plot is probably the best terroir in Pouilly-Loché. Soils laden with iron oxides produce a rich, mineral, very long, fruity wine. Still a little restrained, it will fully reveal itself in 2 to 3 years. A very fine vintage that confirms our work in organic viticulture.
Bret Brothers - Morgon Les Charmes 2013
This Morgon cuvée, one of Beaujolais' finest crus, comes from the "Charmes" plateau, where old, organically grown Gamay vines produce magnificent berries with firm, fragrant skins. A beautiful granite terroir, with an emphasis on elegance and drinkability. A lovely, nuanced red, without excess, for lovers of olfactory journeys... And well-made Morgons!
Bret Brothers - Beaujolais-Leyne Bien-Venue in X-tremis 2013
3/5 (1 review)
17,5/20 Bettane & Desseauve
Produced from three magnificent hillside parcels (25-30%) with east and south exposure, facing Chaintré and Saint-Amour, this Beaujolais Villages offers deep color, character and fruit. The terroir of Leynes, from which the 2013 grapes still come, speaks for itself! Wine lovers will appreciate...
