▸ 92 Points - James Suckling (Mar 2023)
“This Fleurie is the opposite of the charming wines so many seek from this appellation, but in a very positive way. With a bit of aeration violet and wild strawberry notes develop. Sleek, tightly structured and compact with stacks of healthy tannins, but it has a delicate sweetness that balances all this very well. Long, subtle finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.”–Stuart Pigott (Mar 2023)
