‘17 In the zone! Such delicate winemaking. Not overly extracted but still has some depth and power. I forgot how much I enjoy Lefarge. Beautiful. — 12 days ago
2019 is also good. Trees, strawberry, plum, a bit earthy, deep. 2019 @1520, xuaduo, 220729-220802 — 21 days ago
Mousset family has managed Clos Saint Michel for more than 6 decades, in Southern Rhône they have been active in wine for Much longer. Deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, herb and spicy notes, blend of 40% Grenache and 30% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, all aged in older barrels. On the palate flavors of black cherry and ripe blackberry with cigar box and black pepper spice. Big firm tannins, nicely integrated, good balanced, long finish with solid ending. — 18 days ago
Absolutely incredible. Pears and apples, stone and earth. Finishes with a deep buttery ending. Just…wow. — 13 days ago
I put my fork down halfway through dinner and logged into my local shop’s website so I could buy the last two bottles they had. Beautiful wine. On the nose and attack it’s like where’s the beef? Then it gets into your mouth and it’s all Burgundian fresh, feminine, incense, white pepper and perfume. Great syrah. — 5 days ago
Very impressive at this pricepoint. Proper Sancerre, ie mineral and linear but with nice balance of zesty just ripe tropical fruit. V warm vintages of late have destroyed linearity in some Sancerres for me but this was bang on. Strong buy. — 19 days ago

A solid Côte-du-Rhône, in terms of quality/price/pleasure ratio. Dark garnet-violin dress. Complete nose, intense black fruits, menthol, garrigue, mineral notes promising a beautiful relief. In the mouth it is very balanced, supple, fruity, peppery (syrah), licorice and spicy nuances with fruit and minerality. Superb for its price!
Un Côte du Rhône des plus solide, pour ce qui est du rapport qualité/prix/plaisir. Robe grenat-violine sombre. Nez complet, fruits noirs intense, menthol, garrigue, notes minérales promesse d’un beau relief. En bouche c’est très équilibré, souple, fruité, poivré (syrah), réglisse et nuances épicées avec du fruit et de la minéralité. Superbe pour son prix ! — 3 days ago
