Blanc des noirs. Angular. Terrific aromatics. Mousse is on point. Light brioche, cider notes. Mineral finish. The aromatics stay with you. Cool project from the Vouette & Sorbée folks with some neighbors’ fruit. — 12 days ago

Very well-made, big & expansive palate, gripping finish, heat. Lovely aromatics on opening. Long decant, enjoyed over four hours. New style, not quite our thing. — 17 days ago

Wild and herbal, strawberry, garrigue. Dry and slightly hot on the finish. Unmistakably Pradeaux. — 6 days ago

Saline/floral nose. Grippy palate, no flab. Mineral. Texture is fabulous. Really an unsung Tempier (in the words of @Anthony Lombardi). Perfect with herby spanikopita & marinated lamb. — 10 days ago

Tawny & vintage are our preferred styles, but this is probably the best example of ruby port we’ve tasted. Fresh, juicy, some heat on the finish, and a surprising hint of complexity. Great value. — 15 days ago

Past its prime, sadly. Colour is gorgeous, opening was promising. Weak mid and no legs. — 8 days ago

Salty & herbal...appealingly rustic like all the cardedu wines are. Best chilled with medi food; really gives a sense of place. — 16 days ago
