94 points Wine Enthusiast"A tight, young wine with tannins and structure still firmly intact, this offers great potential. It has smoky richness, with black fruits in the background ready to move forward. It shows weight, density and needs to age for...

94 points James Suckling"Brown stems with a hint of blackcurrants, mulberries, violets, rose hips and a hint of licorice. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with a fleshy mid-palate and fine tannins. Quite intense yet vibrant. Great drinkability. Drink...

92 points Vinous"The 2022 País Granito from Guarilihue, Itata, was 100% whole bunches fermented and aged for one year in barrels. Garnet red in hue. The nose presents pomegranate and characterful herb aromas over a bed of red fruit. Delicate and...

95 points James Suckling"A different style to the previous vintage of Los Parientes. This shows nimbler, more lime-like white and green fruit with green apples, nectarines, green tea and some chamomile. Very cool, taut and vibrant with bright,...

95 points Wine Advocate"Chiefly (90%) from Les Plantiers—a little-known lieu-dit toward the western base of the slope—with about 10% Les Bessards, Sorrel`s 2020 Hermitage looks like its customary supple, silky self, with masses of raspberry...

97 points Jeb Dunnuck"The 2020 Hermitage Les Rocoules Blanc brings more richness and depth, with a similar quince, honeysuckle, green almond, and brioche-driven bouquet. It's a powerhouse on the palate and is full-bodied, deep, opulent, and viscous, with...

95 points Wine Spectator"This has good concentration and energy to the dense core of dark fruit and bitter cherry, with great poise and elegance despite its ripeness (an impressive feat for the vintage). Guided by finely crushed mineral accents and...

93 points James Suckling"This has an impressive, ripe dark-fruit nose with hints of coffee and cedar, too. The palate has a very succulent and attractively rich and composed edge with a glossy and even-paced feel. There’s a lot to like here. Drink...

96 points Decanter"Good sense of weight, volume and depth here. The acidity is marked and nicely integrated, as is the alcohol and the oak for that matter - a harmonious, though certainly a sizeable and mighty wine. Concentrated, intense and long, with a...

98+ points Wine Advocate"The beautifully proportioned 2018 Hermitage La Chapelle comes across as a complex, complete version of this renowned bottling, with no rough edges—just moderate spice, cassis, red berries and cedar on the nose. It's medium...
