CRITIC REVIEWS

Ferrous, earthy and herbal, with the stemmy style of great Syrah – or possibly that’s the green-pepper scent of Cabernet. So utterly delicious! Really stunning, effortless complexity even now, with a long, earthy finish. (RH)

Not too dissimilar from the 2013 in overall weight and richness, yet in a more forward, charming style, the 2014 Coteaux dAix en Provence Alpilles offers a beautiful perfume of kirsch and currant fruits, Provençal herbs, cedary spices, and dried earth. Medium-bodied, silky, seamless and beautifully pure on the palate, it has light tannin, no hard edges, and impeccable balance. I love it today, and while it’s not going to be the longest-lived vintage of this wine, it should keep for another 8-10 years easily, and I suspect have a gradual decline.
