95 points Wine Advocate"From 35-year-old Grenache in Pignan, vinified as whole clusters and then aged 24 months in older demi-muids, this is a floral, ethereal expression of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, marked by scents of roses, lavender, strawberry compote and...

95 points Wine Spectator"Very expressive, with singed bay, sweet tapenade and singed juniper notes leading off, followed by gently mulled cherry, plum and raspberry fruit flavors. Juniper note streaks through the fruit on the finish, with a long sanguine...

94 points Decanter"There are plenty of ripe black plum and fig aromas, with strong components of earth and leather. Despite all the ripeness here, the wine is still balanced. Winemaker Jérôme Flous says: 'It is not far from 2018, but the...

92 points Vinous“The NV Brut Blanc de Noirs Henri III Grand Cru is another impressive wine in this range. Light oak accents work well here. White flowers, mint, white orchard fruit and lemon confit bring out the brighter side of Pinot Noir in this...

97 points Jeb Dunnuck"A more brooding and dark profile emerges in the 2021 Pinot Noir Occidental Ridge, revealing notes of black cherry, resinous pine sap, and freshly toasted sage. Full-bodied, with ripe tannins, blackberry, violets, and crushed...

95 points Wine Enthusiast"Dark, intense and juicy aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, violet and black pep- per fire up the amazing nose of this bottling. The palate is vibrant with acidity and layered in a fascinating texture, combining flavors of...

94 points Decanter"Lovely vanilla, toast, red fruit jam, plums, lees, brioche and croissant aromas. Palate with very good integration of the fine mousse. Blend: 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, 25% Pinot Meunier." 93 points James...
