"A fruity, velvety and charming red that will never cease to seduce you, a real treat!"

"This wine smells so good, so Languedoc, so irresistible. This is sumptuous, abundant fruit, with a ferny, mossy freshness of a mountain stream. It's much fresher than I ever imagined - it exudes purity. Masses of fruit. Saturated with red cherry and raspberry juice, a fine touch of balsamic, a handful of finely ground cloves and nutmeg. Cashmere-like tannins, with tea leaves. Peppery finish, full of energy." (Jancis Robinson 2024)

Wine rated (2024 guide) 91/100

About the wine:

This wine has a nose of blackberry, dried red cherry, strawberry and blueberry. A mix of red and black fruit dances on the palate, each in turn taking the lead. Slightly tight tannins bring concentration and body, and persist powerfully through to the finish.

About the wine:

A fruity, juicy, velvety and charming red with notes of cherries, raspberries, blackcurrants and olives. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a clean development on the palate. Fruity and pleasant. Drink now.

Note and review by M. JAMES C. Published on 27/02/2025

I have drunk many vintages of the Prestige, since the 2005. This 2021 is possibly the least attractive as it offers very little . I found it almost fruitless and quite bland.
