February 11, 2022 - Outstanding - clean beautiful 100% Grenache, silky and graceful while offering plenty of power. Excellent expression of sand-based lieux dits CDP.

January 16, 2022 - First time trying this producer. Impressive CdP. Ripe mostly red fruits with some blacks mixed in, but comes across as restrained and focused. Mild tannins. Enough brightness, but not a particularly structured wine. Shows some sandalwood and subtle provincial spice notes. In an elegant nuanced style. Last sip was the best. Seems to have a bright future

September 18, 2018 - Smoky, long, rich, silky and polished the wine is deeply concentrated, elegant, polished and fresh. There is length and density with the ability to age found here. The wine is made using 100% old vine Grenache.
