Holy sh*t this has hit a new level. Floral as all get out with ripe jasmine and pressed white flowers. Gained massive volume with a few years of age; tremendous rocky bite, phenolic, smokey, notes of caramel, brûlée, tangerine essential oil. Just fantastic. — 6 months ago
Tre bien mes amis. Amour from a smooth unidentified varietal awaits your every savoury sip. I’d write more but I’m a bit too irve. Bonne nuit. — 4 years ago
Surprenant que cette bouteille produit par les Brunel (Cuvée des Générations C9P) que ce petit Côtes-du-Rhône, Une nez agréable de garrigue. Une bouche croquante de fruit avec des saveurs de framboise et de garrigue. Très bon et pour le prix ! — 7 months ago

This is a very good value for a classic GSM Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Well balanced, with good acidity, plush tannins and bright red (strawberry, red currant) and black fruit (blackberry, black cherry). There is already a welcome note of garrigue (wild thyme and lavender) and a hint of leather. What prevents it from scoring higher is a medium finish from toned-down intensity. For that added level you need to go for the top-tier (and excellent) Les Cailloux! — a year ago

GOSH this blend of Roussanne, Clairette and Grenache Blanc makes for a poised, silky and aromatic but elegant bottle I’d imagine paying twice as much for. The nose promises stone fruit and incense adventure, while the palate is cozy, adding warming spice, lanolin and honeydew melon, along side hints of wet stone to keep it all fresh. J’adore, je affor(d). — 2 months ago
