CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
Pierre Graf’s blend of Médoc and Rhône material is a thing of beauty. This has a riot of ripe red and purple-berry aromas with a wealth of fragrant, floral and cocoa-powder notes. There’s a smooth and succulent feel to the gently grainy palate that holds super fresh and seamless into the juicy finish. Polished and delicious blend of 63% cabernet sauvignon from North Medoc, 23% grenache from Rhône Valley and syrah from Rhône Valley. Drink or hold.

I tasted the 2015 and 2016 of this wine, and this one for me is the best of the two. A powerful mix of Cabernet, Grenache and Syrah that suggests Gigondas power with a more structured tannic backbone. It comes from a mix of two terroirs - Médoc gravels and Rhône granite and loam - which translates on the palate to the Cabernet giving clear tannic structure and dark cassis fruits that melt into the richer blackberry and raspberry fruits of the southern Rhône varieties. Concentrated yet welcoming, highly enjoyable, with tight spices. Blend is completed with 9% Mourvèdre, 8% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot.
