(6x75cl) 2019Vinous (97)
Saturated ruby color. Displays an array of ripe black and blue fruit and floral aromas that are accompanied by suggestions of sandalwood, candied flowers and exotic spices. Broad and fleshy but energetic as well, offering palate-staining, spice-accented blueberry, cherry-cola, salty olive and candied violet flavors that show excellent clarity. Lingers with superb tenacity and youthful tannic grip, leaving hints of smoky minerals and dark berry preserves behind.Inc. GSTSG$3,686.84 -
(6x75cl) 2022Wine Advocate (96)
While Elsa Gangloff declined my request to taste at the property, arguing that all the wines were already sold, I was able to acquire a bottle of 2022 Cote Rotie la Sereine Noire. Upon initial encounter, the wine appears introverted and shy but gradually reveals complex aromas of black olive, pepper, coniferous forest, bay leaf and dark berries, all enhanced by hints of smoke. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and deep, it's layered and generously extracted, energetic and lively, framed by structured tannins that assert themselves to a long, mineral and pencil lead-inflicted finish. This is a rather deep, seamless wine that needs time to chill out.Inc. GSTSG$2,381.00

Chateauneuf du Pape, in the Rhone, pioneered the Appellation Controlee system by drawing up the first rules in 1923 regulating production, providing a prototype for others. This regulated yields, alcohol levels and what grapes could be grown where. The Rhone has gone through a resurgence with more of its appellations distinctive identities being asserted and respected.
