I love the wines of Domaine Bosquets, they have a lovely perfume and freshness so rarely seen in the Southern Rhone. Made by Julien Bréchet. The Domaine has been described by well known journalist Jeb Dunnuck as “the Chambolle Musigny of the Rhône.
To preserve freshness, Julien picks earlier and uses minimal oak, allowing the elegance in the wines to shine through. The Séguret Côtes-du-Rhône Villages is an excellent introduction to Julien’s style. It is sourced from a six-hectare vineyard in the village of Séguret, with similar soils and elevation to his historic vineyards in Gigondas. It displays intense aromas of blackberry, lavender and black pepper. Made from equal parts of Grenache and Syrak aged in used foudres. Fabulous fruit and spice, has a long almost creamy finish.
