"This IGP wine could fool anyone in a blind tasting, it's a great wine! (Customer review by ERIC E. Published on 01/09/2020) "
Cuvée Les Brunes is marked by a beautiful, intense aromatic radiance, with notes of spice, blackcurrant, licorice and hints of vanilla. A tasty red wine, rich and greedy, balanced and full of fruit, with powerful yet fine tannins and excellent cellaring potential.

Domaine des Creisses
IGP Pays d'Oc
Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
Creisses refers to pebbles. Philippe Chesnelong took over this family estate in 1990. He is assisted by his cousin Louis Mitjaville, whose reputation has spread far beyond Saint-Émilion. The cuvée les-brunes is generally powerful, while the more immediate cuvée des creisses explodes with flavor. A truly fine address.

Note and review by M. JEAN-MICHEL P. Published on 20/11/2023
This is a flawless vintage, full of deliciousness and powerful aromas. The velvety mouthfeel is full of it, with blackberry jam evolving towards vanilla and slightly animal and spicy notes.
