Critics Ratings
'Pale yellow. Ripe pear, lemon pith, honeysuckle and a hint of succulent herbs on the perfumed nose. Chewy and broad on the palate, offering concentrated, mineral-tinged citrus and orchard fruit and honeysuckle flavors that firm up steadily with air. Closes on a juicy pear nectar note, with strong, floral-driven tenacity.' - Josh Reynolds, Vinous, 92/100 (May 2020)
'A generous vintage for this wine, with a gorgeous, lifted lime and orange blossom nose, a touch of jasmine from the Viognier. Good acidity and sense of tension allied with a sapid finish makes for a drinkable style. Very good white option for 2018. Marsanne, Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne, all grown close to Côte-Rôtie.' - Matt Walls, Decanter.com, 91/100 (Oct 2019)
