2023
James Suckling 90: An aromatic white Cotes-du-Rhone with lots of floral aromas, including pink roses. Ripe and medium- to full-bodied. Long, creamy finish with a touch of fine tannins balancing this neatly. A cuvee based on viognier with small amounts of grenache blanc and roussanne. Drink from release.
Vinous 89: Raised entirely in stainless steel, the 2023 Cotes du Rhone Blanc outperforms the 2022 I tasted last year. Vivid apricot, yellow apple and white peach aromas of moderate intensity rise from the glass. Round and concentrated, the sapid 2023 checks out with notable freshness on the juicy close.
