Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

Produced from 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc on gravel and red clay on iron-rich subsoil. Hosanna is usually the most extravagant wine in the JP Moueix line-up. A quite wild and intoxicating bouquet of sweet black cherry, black tea, cooked meats, truffle, tar, eucalyptus, liquorice and mocha. This is very true to form - packed with decadent, plush dark fruits, boysenberry, raspberry, plums, creme de menthe - seamless and pure. There’s a lot of mass here and a touch of alcohol, but it finishes with freshness and salinity. Hosanna fans will be enthralled.

GUARANTEED PROVENANCE

Provenance in fine wine

When it comes to purchasing wine, provenance is of upmost importance. A wine’s history – where it’s sourced from and how it’s been stored – can have an enormous influence on the eventual enjoyment it provides. At Justerini & Brooks, we can trace nearly every case back to the domaine, estate or Château it originally came from; we ship from over 200 wine producers throughout the world.

Wines not bought directly from the vineyard are either sourced from trusted suppliers, with whom we share the same philosophy and rigour in buying, or from our own network of Cellarers customers. These customers’ wines are stored in optimal conditions in Octavian Corsham and, in the vast majority of cases, have been stored by us since the wine was first shipped. We do not purchase wine from auctions.

We feel it is equally important to for our customers that the case they buy and leave in storage with us is exactly the same case they subsequently have delivered. This may sound obvious and straightforward, yet we are one of very few merchants to have taken measures to ensure this.

We have created a system where every case is independent, thereby ensuring a trail of ownership and peace of mind for every customer.

The Journey

Justerinis ensures that every case of wine stored with Cellarers (Wines) Ltd has a unique identifier and customer’s name, almost unheard of in the industry as it is expensive to administer. These details are printed and placed on every case which is logged and recorded under your account name and kept in the world’s most renowned storage facility, Octavian Corsham.

This information is sent from our systems to the warehouse every day to ensure the trail of ownership is verified and upheld.

While customer reserves are stored in Corsham, our physical stocks are kept in Hoddesdon, further providing a geographical separation between customers’ wines with Cellarers and Justerinis’ own stock.

Further Reassurance

Cellarers (Wines) Ltd is a legally separate limited company from Justerini & Brooks which currently holds approximately £450 million worth of customer reserves. It is fully insured to catastrophic loss. Many merchants will state that wine in their care is fully insured, but in reality this is on an individual case basis with insufficient cover for total loss as this is prohibitively expensive. The cover provided by Octavian and Justerini & Brooks is unmatched.

Cellarers (Wines) Ltd is audited by PwC every year.

Jane Anson,

Inside Bordeaux

Intense, concentrated, very different in character form many in the vintage in Pomerol; this delivers palma violets, a touch chalky, intense liquorice drops, umami texture here, impressive, velvety, drawn out, good quality with vintage signature without being heavy. 4.5ha, harvest September 5 to 19.

Neal Martin,

The 2022 Hosanna has a plush, ripe, outgoing bouquet with copious blackberry and blueberry fruit aromas unfurling in the glass, perhaps dispensing with some delineation. However, there is certainly purity of fruit in situ. The palate is more refined, controlled and blessed by a silky-smooth texture with touches of dark chocolate-infused black fruit and mocha manifesting toward the finish. It resembles the Hosanna's of the early noughties in some ways, though it should age well in bottle.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown,

The Wine Independent

The 2022 Hosanna is a blend of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc, sporting a deep garnet-purple color. After a swirl or two the most gorgeous perfume of red roses, juicy black cherries, and black raspberries erupts from the glass, followed by wafts of crushed rocks, cast iron pan, and unsmoked cigars. The full-bodied palate is very tightly wound with loads of bright red and black fruit layers, framed by ripe, fine-grained tannins and beautiful freshness, finishing long and perfumed. Beautiful.
