winemaker's notes:

This Rasteau is a worthy ambassador of the terroir. The appellation was upgraded to cru this year; a long-awaited and well deserved distinction. Exemplary southern Rhône in style, it has a forward style, great concentration and warrants several years in the cellar.

Blend: 75% Grenache, 25% Syrah

alcohol by volume: 14.0%
critical acclaim:

"Captivating, with fig, boysenberry, linzer torte and blueberry notes all melded together, wrapped with fruitcake and licorice snap and then coursing through the graphite-filled finish. Very dark in profile, with a Turkish coffee note in the background, but great cut and spine overall. Best from 2013 through 2020."

Wine Spectator

"e 2010 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Rasteau Vieilles Vignes reveals the muscular, chocolaty, scorched earth, dense Grenache character of this sun-baked hillside appellation. With a dense ruby/purple color as well as a macho style, this 90% Grenache cuvee is rustic, earthy, full-bodied and massive. Cellar it for 2-4 years and drink it over the following 15+.
Range: 91-93"
