Rated vintages

  • 201587 pts

    This is a stiff and herbal wine without much charm, even after considerable breathing time. Rubbery scents, bitter tannins and a chicken stock note obscure its tart berry and black cherry fruit.

  • 201487 pts

    Production has more than tripled in the past three vintages for this wine. This is a full-throttle, tannic young wine, with muscle and verve, but lacking finesse. The midpalate offers cherries, earthy tannins and stem flavors.

    Winemaker Laurent Montalieu has outdone himself with the fruit from this heritage vineyard. Silky and deep, with a luscious mix of berries, it's a supple, seductive Pinot, wrapped in sleek layers of spicy, toasty oak.
