James Suckling: 95 Points
An imposing yet beautifully balance expression of the 2020 vintage in Chateauneuf, this has a wide spectrum of aromas that reaches from violets to licorice via sandalwood. All of this is underpinned by restrained blackberry fruit and ample fine tannins on the full-bodied, impeccably balanced palate. Very long, velvety finish. A joint venture between star Chateauneuf producer Stephane Usseglio and the NBA player Carmelo Anthony. Drink or hold.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Characterful, dense and deeply earthy, with a pleasing chewiness to its dried red berry and plum notes, woven with dried herb, potpourri, balsamic and ganache elements. Decadent, showing concentration, but offset by savory undertones of earth and mineral. Long, salty and complex. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2030. 400 cases made, 200 cases imported.
