Clear, medium ruby to garnet in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced intensity primary and secondary aromas of black cherries, cassis, and graphite; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, and intense primary and secondary flavors of blackberries, black cardamom, and wet gravel with a medium finish. This wine is simple, but balanced. Overall, I rate this wine as good. — a day ago
2022 vintage. 65 Merlot, 30 Cabernet Sauvignon, 4 Cabernet Franc, 1 Petit Verdot. A very different style compared to Brane Cantenac, as it comes from different vineyards and it is more Merlot dominated. But this 2022 is a great wine in its own right. Good to know is that Henri Lurton considers 2022 his best vintage ever! — a month ago
[60% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 15% Cinsault, 5% Carignan, 5% Mourvedre] Still very grapey and primary, I actually tasted this wine in barrel in May of 2019 at the Chateau, and it tastes like it’s barely evolved since then, great acid, ripe, round tannins, long, lingering finish, this should easily age another 10 years based on my history of tasting this cuvée since the 1998!! — 7 days ago
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Beautiful nose of red fruits with earth, light wood, coffee, spices, dark chocolates and peppercorn.
Medium bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, chocolates, light oak and licorice.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This 8 year old GSM blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is delicious now. Complex, well balanced and entertaining. Elegant and fruit forward.
I had the 2020 vintage not too long ago, and this one drinks so much better.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
Robert Parker 93 points.
Easy drinking and good by itself as a sipping wine.
A blend of 40% Grenache, 40% Syrah and 20% Mourvedre. Aged in large French oak barrels for 18 months.

The oldest of a 4 bottle vertical I bought a few weeks ago. In a perfect window. Made a vodka sauce and wow. Great compliment. Fresh herbs after an hour of being open. Can’t wait to try the other 3 years. — 15 hours ago
