James Suckling: 97 Points
Robust, floral and intense. 100% old-vine grenache, expressing aromas of wild berries, sweet cherries, orange peel, dried flowers, grilled herbs and loads of spices. It’s full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Juicy at the center with so much energy. It’s vibrant and focused with good drive in the finish. Bright and agile.
Wine Enthusiast: 96 Points
Fresh aromas of dark cherry, black licorice, tarragon, cedar, and underbrush create a deeply earthy nose. Full bodied and concentrated, the palate offers dark cherry, beef bouillon, cocoa nib, and licorice, finishing with bitter tea leaf and pulverized stone. Voluminous and luxurious. (Cellar Selection)
Wine Spectator: 96 Points
There's a lot to love in this ethereal red, with stunning purity and allure. The perfumed nose is marked by black fruit, pepper, smoked bacon and tobacco, with smoky oolong tea in the backdrop. Concentrated yet doesn't feel weighed down, with fine, chalky tannins landing the finish, which stretches out in effortless harmony and reveals earthy tugs of tar and juniper. Its beautiful suppleness makes this approachable now, but this will also go the distance in the cellar. Drink now through 2040. From France.
