GUIDE HACHETTE 2011
Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2009
” … This estate offers a 2009 that is still closed but promising. The nose exhales discreet scents of red berries, while the palate, round and already pleasant, reveals tannins that are a little tight on the finish, requiring a year’s cellaring.. “
– Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge 2007
” Don’t hesitate to take the little path that leads to the winery’s cellar: nestled in the middle of the vineyard, it offers a breathtaking view of Mont Ventoux on one side and the old village of Rochefort on the other. Here you’ll discover a 2007 with a still-shy bouquet, which nonetheless reveals hints of red berries. This wine pleases with its particularly structured palate: the Mourvèdre (30% of the blend) and Carignan are not strangers to this character trait. “
– Lirac red 2008
” … 2008 was a difficult vintage and this Lirac does not reach the levels of previous years. Nonetheless, it remains pleasant, imbued with aromas of kirsch and blackcurrant, and well-structured on the palate. Drink in autumn with red meat. “
