Bright colour; a beautiful generous, plump and fleshy blend, with a backbone of Provencal garrigue providing light to the masses of sweet red and black fruits shade; the trailing spice and purity of fruit are seamless and very long.

Smoky nose… Good texture and very true varietal flavours. Well done!

Duval’s light, elegant touch is readily apparent... Subtly spicy with a dash of cinnamon to its well-defined bright and tangy pear and stone fruits. Fresh, well integrated acidity makes for a limpid, lingering, mineral finish. Just dances over the palate. Impressive.

Invigorating mouthfeel, with some lemon, hints of honey and a long finish...The fruit is ripe and full, with some good acidity.

White peach florality and oak fills out the soft-textured fruit that shows minerality on the finish. A successful, potentially complex wine.

A fresh, pristine white blend with a rich Southern Rhône bent. There are herbal and yeast aromas, and the palate is light- to medium-bodied with a long clean finish.

A fascinating wine, harking back to the past more than looking to the future, its flavours autumnal not spring-like, its textures thoughtful and mellow, not crisp and meadowbright.

Restrained bouquet, with blanched almonds and peach on the bouquet; texture is the key, with richness and depth providing interest.

Admirably fresh and precise.
