94 Points

Friday, April 12, 2024 - It’s a Frenchie thing (Frenchie Bar à Vins & Frenchie , Paris): It’s been 4 years since we had this ( Papies 92) and definitely this has blossomed into something special and is far from its peak. Ironically we always find the reds of this estate to underperform vs the white and their price but boy have we been proven wrong here.
Just the nose on this beauty is mesmerising and definitely the high point of the wine. Nicol who tried this blind had no issued spotting the region/type but actually pushed in the end to Cote Rôtie. Impressive nose, expressive even with no decanting, soft rich fruit, lightest kiss of smoke, floral and just sings. The palate follows but not to the level and needs a few more years to develop and even show a secondary feel. An impressive wine easy 94 now and watch it grow.
