CHATEAU BRILLETTE, THE ESTATE’S GRAND VIN

HAUT BRILLETTE, The VERVE AND FRESHNESS OF YOUTH
Seductive and filled with energy, Haut Brillette is delicately crafted from the estate’s youngest vines. Haut Brillette’s tantalizing aromas of fruit and lovely structure, supple, silky tannins and wonderful acidity on the palate are best enjoyed when the wine is young and its fruit is at its most flavorful and seductive.

Embracing a sustainable approach to winemaking is essential to reducing our environmental impact and respecting the balance of our ecosystem. With the launch of our vegan wine, Brin de Brillette, in 2018, we sought to further limit our impact on the environment, using a lighter glass bottle to improve recyclability, water-based ink to print labels and packaging, grass paper for our labels, plant wax for our capsules and recycled, recyclable cardboard for our boxes.
Balanced and expressive, with a nose of fresh fruit and delicate texture on the palate, Brin de Brillette is perfect for enjoying with friends for a moment of pure delight!
