2023 vintage. Medium body. Harmonious melange of green apple and pear with light-medium oak influence and complimentary acidity. Tremendous QPR and the nice price for this producer. 1.3.26. — 4 days ago

9.1

Pretty nose of white flowers with citrus fruits.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with lemons, apples, pears, light earth, herbs and spices.

This is a very tasty white wine from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Rich and inviting, with a soft mouthfeel. Nicely balanced, complex and elegant.

Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already enjoyable even by itself. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 years.

A touch buttry, fresh and easy drinking. A good quality wine, and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 35% Clairette, 35% Grenache Blanc, 15% Roussanne and 15% Bourboulenc. A small production of only 3,000 bottles.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

9.1

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Nose of red fruits with spices and earth notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, currants, light wood, spices, dark coffee, herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This 3 year old red blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is still young, but already complex and entertaining. Very approachable, powerful and fruit forward.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Elegant and nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

A blend of 70% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, and other local varieties. Aged for 2 years in large French oak barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

9.5

There is some evident oak up front in this Cuvée Felix, lots of fresh, clean red-fruited Grenache which is less ripe than the 2015 CdP opened with this, some mineral and floral notes as well, very good balancing acidity which keeps the wine youthful (it really seems like a 10-year-old CdP), I’d say it will improve for 5 years and easily last 10 more years, but the long, lively finish means it’s drinking very well tonight!! Purchased at the domaine in early 2007. — 9 days ago

Oaky, not seamless and integrated but also not over the top. There is good wine underneath the sheen of oak. If your thing you'll like it... — 2 months ago

9.2

Pretty red color with medium intensity.

Fresh red berries on the nose with light milk chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, red currants, light earth, light wood, spices, coffee, herbs and dark chocolates.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This delicious 3 year old Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is starting to drink beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.

Still young, and from the great 2022 vintage. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Rich and fruit forward. Complex with a soft mouthfeel. Soft, pure and elegant.

The high alcohol is very well integrated. Spicy and entertaining. Well structured and precise.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

Grapes are grown on aged vines of more than 100 years old. A blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Cinsault and 20% Syrah. Aged in mostly concrete vats for 2 years. Syrah is aged in new French oak barrels.

16% alcohol by volume.
