Feraud-Brunel

Feraud-Brunel is a part of Hand Picked Selections' wine portfolio.

Laurence Feraud is the hardest-workin' woman in the wine business. Running (with her semi-retired father) one of the most prestigious Estates in Chateaneuf-du-Pape wasn't enough, so with Andre Brunel she founded the tiny top quality negociant house Feraud-Brunel.

Feraud - Brunel Cotes du Rhone-Villages

"A joint venture between Laurence Feraud of Domaine de Pegau and Andre Brunel of Les Cailloux, this bottle offers far more wine than one has any right to expect from a simple Cotes du Rhone Villages. It's huge, tanic and black, yet the ripeness is expressed in its sense of stones, of warm earth, of place rather than overripe fruit. Let it relax for a year in the cellar, or decant ahead of a leg of lamb."

"A blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah, the tasty, forward 2003 Cotes du Rhone-Villages exhibits aromas of kirsch, pepper, herbs, and earth. Medium-bodied, spicy, and muscular, it is best drunk during its first 3-4 years of life."
