Robert Parker

" The third vintage from this seven-hectare estate, the Vincents of Château Fuissé have produced a 2011 Juliénas that combines juicy raspberry notes with a hint of rose. Satisfying on the palate and refreshing, it compensates for its relative simplicity with undeniable charm, with a beautiful salinity on the finish that makes it mouthwatering, long, and slightly bittersweet. Judging by my experience with other higher-end wines in the appellation, it will age very well until 2016." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
