February 3, 2024 - One of the best CDP's I have ever had. A fabulous wine with freshness balanced by great intensity and a long finish. Classis garrigue of Grenache with the tannins well integrated and drinking beautifully at this time.

October 28, 2023 - Decanted. Earthy and animalistic with lots of dark fruit and minty methanol quality. Classically done, getting more voluminous and substantial with air. 94+

September 6, 2019 - A lovely nose of dark cherry and garrigue. Then deep flavors of dark cherry and iodine with lifted acidity and floral freshness. Great intensity to this wine with a grippy complex finish with notes of violets, garrigue, smoky minerals and dark spices. Quite tight yet but this is a clean wine showing just a hint of the wild feral notes tha will come with further bottle age. A super Celestins in the making. 95+
