Critics Ratings

'Mid bright crimson. Great intensity with freshness on the nose. Real zip and tension on the palate. Deep and bitter cherry with fabulous lift. Soars on the palate! So exciting, and long. Still embryonic. Very long.' - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com. 18.5/20 (Nov 2017)

'The Griotte is beautiful in 2016, the inherent elegance of the vineyard synthesising perfectly with Fourrier's limpid style. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, rose petal and liquorice mingle with subtle nuances of rich soil, introducing a full-bodied, silky wine, its fine, chalky tannins cloaked in a deep and ample core of pure, glossy and succulent fruit. This should be very special with some bottle age.' - William Kelley, Decanter.com, 95/100 (Oct 2017)
