Description
 
Domaine Gourt de Mautens has become one of the hottest properties in the Southern Rhône. Within a few short years, Gourt de Mautens’ owner, Jérôme Bressy, has already been compared to all-time greats such as Henri Bonneau and the late Jacques Reynaud of Château Rayas. To further his status as an uncompromising perfectionist, Jérôme recently declassified all his wines to IGP Vaucluse; a shot aimed against the sometimes too rigid laws of the AOC. When Jerome learned that the grape variety Picardin would be excluded from the new list of permitted grape varieties in AOC Rasteau (which also required reduction of other minor varietals to less than 15% of any Rasteau blend) he opted out of the appellation.

The Chambolle-Musigny of the Rhône, the 2015 IGP Vaucluse from Jerome Bressy is a totally sensational blend of 50% Grenache and the balance a mix of Mourvèdre, Carignan, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Cinsault, Syrah, and Terret Noir (we're getting close to all the varieties). Aged in a mix of concrete tanks, foudre, demi-muids, and barrels, bottled unfined and unfiltered, this naked beauty has just about everything you could want from a bottle of wine. Notes of rose petals, kirsch, blackberries, garrigue, and spice all emerge from this pure, elegant and gorgeous red that offers full-bodied richness, no hard edges and a killer finish. It got more than a few Wows in my notes and is an ethereally textured southern Rhône that needs to be tasted to be believed. Jeb Dunnuck 97
