Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

Golden, aromatic and layered, living up to its Juste Rose moniker in appearance, but very much influenced by Pinot in both aromatics and taste. The house tends to serve this in Burgundy glasses and it makes perfect sense as broad yet refined notes of red fruits, rose and Szechuan peppercorn entirely fill a large glass. On the palate there’s the sleekest of textures and plenty of fine chalk notes, a touch of tannic grip and exceptionally fine mousse. Perfumed, long and complex – a brilliant match for Pigeon, figs, or duck.

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.

Critic Reviews

97/100

William Kelley,

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Disgorged in November 2017, the 2007 Extra Brut Clos des Goisses Juste Rose continues to show brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with an attractive bouquet that mingles notes of red berries, cherries and apple with nuances of cut flowers, fresh bread and spices, without the riper, tropical top notes found in the 2008. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, satiny textured and multidimensional, with extraordinary concentration, an incisive spine of acidity and a long, chalky finish. Charles Philipponnat adds that he used to think rose aged faster, but he has come to believe that red wine phenolics "frame" the wine and in fact increase its potential longevity. Since Clos des Goisses is already arguably Champagne's longest-lived wine, who knows how far the 2007 will go.

Antonio Galloni,

The 2007 Clos des Goisses Juste Rosé is creamy, ample and also light on its feet. Seemingly light in its first impression, the 2007 opens up beautifully on the mid-palate and finish, where it shows terrific density as well as breadth. Sweet dried cherry, crushed flowers, mint and spice linger on the racy, nuanced finish. I would prefer to drink the 2007 over the next decade or so. The blend is 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay, with a drop of saignée Pinot. Disgorged: November, 2018.
