Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2018-2024, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2016
95% Grenache, 5% others (70 years old). All whole bunch and aged in two-year-old barrels. Spicily perfumed. More aromatic and lifted than the Guy Louis 2015. On the palate it is still pretty grainy and, with all those tannins on the end, needs further ageing but it should age very gracefully. Definitely many cuts above the appellation average. Ambitious. This will be released only in autumn 2017 and Corneys are selling it specifically in magnums. (JR)
