Matt Walls - Decanter
More aromatic than Les Trois Sources currently, it has lifted mulberry aromas and a touch of florality. Not as tannic, this is more approachable and ready to drink. Fresh, pure, a distinctly upright style of Châteauneuf, with a fairly rigid tannic skeleton. Fine, cleansing fruit-derived tannins, and a long, savoury finish. An elegant wine. From the northern edge of the appellation, aged in foudres for 12 months.

Gary Walsh - The Wine Front
Importer: Fesq Blackberry, raspberry, liquorice and dark chocolate, earthy too with some hazelnut and mint. It’s very bold, with a stony grip to tannin, some warmth shows, but gee, such presence and grainy fruit power, the structure of this wine is impeccable, even though it’s kind of throaty and overt, it carries that weight so well. The finish very long. Hello. Not for the faint of heart, but if you’re into a wine of throbbing power and tannic impact, this will serve you well.
