Domaine Andre Brunel Cotes du Rhone Cuvee Est - Ouest Rouge France 2022

The Brunel family has been in the region since the 17th century making wine.  In 1971, André Brunel took over the reins of the Domaine. His endless motivation resulted in a rapid growth for the Domaine: repurchasing of Côtes du Rhône and Vins de Pays vines, and launch of the infamous Centenary Cuvée in 1989. He also made some considerable changes in the vine management process by being one of the first people in Châteauneuf-du-Pape to use the ground covering method and to proceed with a non-chemical approach to wine-farming.

This wine comes from two terroirs with complementary qualities allowing the Grenache to reveal all its potential: elegance and finesse thanks to the small yields and clay-limestone subsoil of the Gardois terroir and power and hardiness thanks to the round pebbles and clay subsoil of the Vauclusian soils. 

The 2022 vintage has allowed us to produce a fresh, well-rounded wine. It is a blend of Grenache and Cinsault, beautifully expressing red fruit aromas, with Syrah adding structure to the finish. Its roundness and smoothness on the palate make it a particularly pleasant and easy-to-drink wine. It charms with its balance.
