THE LITTLE BROTHER OF CHATEAU BROWN The second wine is the reflection of Brown terroir and enjoys the same lavish care as the Grand Vin. The plots of vines are selected to make a fruitier, lighter, easy-drinking wine made to be enjoyed younger. Elegant and well structured, it can be enjoyed right away. “With its large proportion of very ripe Semillon, this wine is a superb, radiant golden yellow. The bouquet is equally impressive, demonstrating this vintage’s huge ripeness as it offers up white peach and apricot with hints of William pear and a touch of citrus fruit in the form of mandarin, plus some vanilla and smoke notes from maturation. Soft and silky in the attack, the touch of oak continues the impression from the nose in beautifully delicate style paired with a slight bitter touch, pleasant freshness, and a lingering gourmet finish.” Philippe Dulong

With its crystalline, beautifully deep golden yellow colour, on the nose this wine initially offers up maturation notes of vanilla, toast and bread crust before quickly opening out into intense scents of passion fruit and fresh mango, then becomes smoother with hints of confectionery, pear barley sugar, and a delicately spicy touch of white pepper. It is full and soft with lots of delicious flavour on the palate, a beautiful range of aromas, a saline touch, and lovely acidic tension balanced out perfectly by the warm finish. Everything about this wine recalls the beautiful summer of 2019, which allowed the estate’s grapes to ripen perfectly despite the early heatwave in June. It is enjoyable drunk young for its powerful aromas, but a little ageing will allow it to blossom beautifully and mellow wonderfully.
