  April 13, 2023 - Getting somewhat pruny and the fruit is browning further. Perhaps like the Chateauneuf. The 2004, at this late stage, is a much better wine. Past peak, and certainly time to drink up.

  December 17, 2020 - Starts to display tertiary aromas of leather, smoke, mushrooms, while still there is the garrigue spicy aspect. Nice attack and good presence on the oalate. Quite long finish. Ready to drink.

  January 19, 2020 - This has aged just as well as most Châteauneufs and it is awesome right now. The fruit is now darker and deeper, there’s notes of dates and figs providing complexity and interest. Pure and local, garrigue in spades, pepper, tannins almost resolved. Will keep. Lazy afternoon at La Contadine.

  July 23, 2018 - Nez d'épices, garrigue et clou de girofle. Bouche encore tannique, d’une jeunesse arrogante. Il montre de la fraicheur et une panoplie d’épices, plein de garrigue. La structure est plus marquée, le millésime laissant son empreinte. L'équivalent qualitatif de quelques Châteauneuf vendus le double. 89 pts

  December 27, 2016 - Nez fruit noir et un peu d'anis belle bouche encore assez puissante mais les tanins sont assagis. Il a souffert de la comparaison avec Pialade et Château des Tours, paraissant plus rustique. Le millésime n'aide sans doute pas. 87-88 pts
