Critics Ratings

‘This has a brambly feel, with bay leaf and chestnut leaf notes studding the core of red currant, damson plum and blackberry fruit. Offers a mix of green and black olive notes, with a flicker of charcoal on the nicely grippy finish.’ – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Oct 2013)

‘Deep ruby. Sexy, floral-accented aromas of red and dark berry preserves, star anise and black pepper. Broad, palate-staining black raspberry and violet flavors are lifted by zesty minerality and show no excess weight. Finishes bright and nervy, with youthful tannic grip, excellent persistence and impressive focus. By all means give this wine some air or more bottle age.’ – Josh Reynolds, Vinous, 92+/100 (Mar 2012)

‘A beautiful Cote Rotie, Jasmin's 2009 Cote Rotie offers classic cassis and black raspberry fruit to go with complex violets, spring flowers, olive and hints of pepper and meatiness. A medium to full-bodied effort, it has outstanding richness and depth as well as fine tannin and nicely integrated acidity, all of which come together beautifully on the finish. It's not a heavy weight, and while already approachable today (and I thoroughly enjoyed this bottle), it should be at its best from 2016-2024.’ – Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, 91/100 (Dec 2014)

‘Light and fresh. Clean and lively. Very neat. Delicate. But chewy on the end.’ – Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Sep 2013)
