95/100 James Suckling
- When to drink it : Drink it or cellar it for over a decade.
- Tasting notes in 2023 - A fragrant, graceful wine dominated by Grenache, with silky tannins and delicate notes of sour cherry and candied orange, as well as a multitude of licorice and spice nuances. Wonderful, elegant, right through to the very long, moderately dry, stony finish. Cuvée composed of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah. "
