The hallmark of Alain Brumont's mastery in Madiran
- This Vieilles Vignes expression showcases harmonious and delicate aromatics, drawing from vines aged between 50 and 100 years. The result is a wine of considerable depth and refinement, reflecting decades of careful viticulture.
- Sourced exclusively from mature vines of 50 to 100 years old, these ancient parcels impart complexity and mineral character that younger vineyards cannot achieve. The age of the vines ensures concentration and elegance.
- A serious wine of considerable ageing potential, Bouscasse Vieilles Vignes represents the pinnacle of Madiran production. This is a wine built for the cellar, developing further nuance and polish over the coming years.

Breeding
Aged on lees in oak barrels for 14 to 16 months.
On the eye
A deep, dark garnet robe with violet undertones, suggesting the wine's power and structure.
On the nose
Delicate aromas of dark berries, wild cherry and plum, interwoven with subtle notes of cigar leaf, moka and graphite. The bouquet unfolds gradually, revealing layers of complexity.
In the mouth
The palate is harmonious and powerful, with refined dark fruit character—blackberry and damson—supported by supple, well-integrated tannins. The wine shows considerable volume and length, with a mineral finish.
A natural companion to game birds such as duck, roasted beef and lamb. The wine's structure suits richly spiced dishes and pairs beautifully with dark chocolate desserts featuring red fruits. Decant an hour before serving to allow the wine to open fully.

VIGNOBLES BRUMONT
Based in Maumusson-Laguian in the Gers, Vignobles Brumont spans 300 hectares across the Madiran appellation, on south-facing slopes of reddish rolled pebbles and deep clays. Since 1979, Alain Brumont has made Tannat his signature, establishing Château Bouscassé and Château Montus as the benchmark addresses of the Sud-Ouest — a standing confirmed by five stars from Bettane+Desseauve in 2023, the only estate in the region to hold that distinction. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the rigour of its terroirs, the consistency of its élevage, and the remarkable ageing potential of its reds over a decade and beyond. A Sud-Ouest address we back without reservation.
