This organically farmed domaine has 43ha of vineyards in Châteauneuf, which they harvest by hand. Fermentation is spontaneous, with no commercial yeast ... Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault, from the Grand Coulet lieu-dit. Matt Walls: Good sense of clarity on the nose, no overt make-up. Orange peel, thyme. Big but not massive, sweetly fruited but finishes dry. Very well balanced, classic, will gain complexity. Tanguy Martin: Intense nose, notes of wild berries, fresh meat and a touch of ground pepper. Palate is firm with shy fruits but great tannins and a good long finish ... Drinking window: 2024-2038. Score: 96 (Panel, decanter.
