Description
Domaine Brunely, "Tresor" Gigondas 2019
90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"An 80-20 blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre, the 2019 Gigondas Tresor boasts hints of crushed stone and dried herbs set against a backdrop of raspberry fruit. It's only medium-bodied, with a silky feel, giving it a sense of elegance that's uncommon in this vintage. Not overly rich or dense, it nevertheless shows excellent balance, and it should drink well for up to a decade."

Domaine Palon, Vacqueyras 2019
Jancis Robinson
"75% Grenache, 16% Mourvèdre, 9% Syrah. Organic. Aged in concrete.
Tasted blind. A vibrant forest-fruit nose. Lots of generous fruit here, supported by fine and elegant tannins and a wonderful depth of vibrant fruit. The Mourvèdre shines through here – long clean and pure. (AC)" 16.5/20 points.

Guillaume Gonnet, 'Le Brave' Cairanne 2019
92 points Wine Spectator
“Ripe and focused, with a core of dark plum and blackberry fruit supported by a well-embedded graphite spine, ending with tobacco and warm earth accents through the finish. Solid.”

Domaine Bressy Masson, Rasteau 2020
91 points Jeb Dunnuck
"The larger production cuvée of the estate, the 2020 Rasteau has lots of black raspberry fruits as well as some exotic floral and orange blossom-like nuances. These carry to a medium-bodied, pretty, elegant Rasteau with terrific balance and length. It’s an outstanding wine to drink over the coming 4-6 years."

Chateau Unang, Cotes du Ventoux 2017
90 points John Gilman, View from the Cellar
"The 2017 offers up a fine nose of red and black raspberries, grilled venison, pepper, bonfire, garrigue and a fine base of limestone soil tones. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and complex, with a superb core of fruit, ripe tannins, good mineral drive and a long, peppery and very well-balanced finish. This is a Gigondas-wannabe of the highest order and a superb value!"

Chateau Bizard, "Montagne de Raucoule" Grignan-les-Adhemar 2018
91 points Wine Enthusiast
“This is a blend of equal parts Syrah and Grenache sourced from the limestone and blue marl soils of Grignan-les-Adhémar. Blackberry and plum flavors are intoxicating and ripe yet have a firm strike of acidity and revitalizing mineral finish. Delightful now the wine should stay at peak through 2025.”
