Aromatic on the nose, ripe apple, pear and sea breeze, on the palate it has nice texture, medium finish. — 4 years ago
Without a doubt one of the best red wines under $20 I've had in a long time. Smooth, soft, and supple, with plum and blackberry flavors. I have no idea why I tend to shy away from certain blends, as I sometimes do with GSMs, but I'm sure glad I picked this one up! I will be seeking more out like this one in the future! 65% Syrah, 15% Grenache, 13% Carignan, 7% Mourvèdre. 3/31/22. — 5 years ago
First time drinking Maccabeu? Round with a waxy texture, but well-balanced with refreshing acidity and minerality. Notes of white fruit, honey, and herbs with a bit of nuttiness. Purchased at Popina in Brooklyn, NY. — 6 years ago
Super big smell, super smooth drink. Peppery, gamey, made me want food. — 4 years ago
Really nice Mourvèdre (mostly). This is a beautiful light refined wine. Limited oak, that leaves the long finish. Really nice wine to eat with grilled food. Meets my requirements for the higher rating by being exceedingly well done. — 5 years ago
Value for money! Vive le sud. Vive l'Agly. — 11 years ago

vintage 2010 | the second time in a month that aged Roussillon surprises me. What a fine wine! Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre. With vines planted between 1900 and 1919. Has lost all its rough tannin edges that are replaced by velvety taste. Still beautiful fruit expressions, eg blackberries. Brushwood. Hint of licorice. Earthyness. I was not aware that I put this in my cellar, but @delectable has two earlier tastingnotes. Now the wine is really magic, best bottle. Paired with venison steak and bimi, cantonese style. — 4 days ago
