Decanter98 pts

“Full, lush and powerful, with a wall of intense tannin – this is an enormously powerful wine that will take many years to approach a state of drinkability. Huge concentration and huge intensity, in many ways this fits the Châteauneuf archetype of statuesque wines for very long ageing. Be prepared for a long wait, followed by rich rewards. Partly destemmed, fermented in concrete, matured for 12 months in foudres and demi-muids.”

A ripe, powerful vintage with gorgeous wines. Extreme heat and drought saved by late August rain. Reds are lush, richly styled, silky and balanced; whites show concentration matched by freshness
