April 20, 2024 - 13% alcohol. S 40%, Mrvdr 30%, G 30%. Longish cork of so-so quality.
The colour is pretty dark but not opaque.
Very good nose of red berries with just a hint of liquorice. The mouth is similar with superb freshness and a magnificent lift in the finish; some strawberry there too. Plenty of substance here, so the ageing potential seems excellent.
Very successful, and it is ever so reassuring to see that wines of such freshness can be produced in the deep south; apparently the vineyard is relatively high up (350m), on volcanic soil and north facing. It will be interesting to compare the wine with the regular Aupilhac whose vines are south facing.
My first encounter with the domain, and a resounding success.2 people found this helpful Comment -

February 20, 2024 - Vraiment un excellent RQP. Un très beau GSM qui est encore en jeunesse. Se boit très bien maintenant mais va certainement évolué positivement et être à son meilleur dans 3 ans.

November 4, 2023 - Potential but too young. Drank a lot of other wine this night and this didn’t shine.

June 10, 2023 - Gourmetklubbens femtiofemte middag (Enskede, Stockholm (C+M)): Deep red colour with a blueish hue. Gentle palate showing austere tannins and with a liquorice touch on the thinner acidic palate.
(Best 2025-2030)
