With its beautiful straw-yellow color, the Cistus vintage offers lovely aromatic intensity and richness. The nose opens with notes of white fruit and white flowers, along with slightly toasty vanilla aromas; on the palate, it is silky, elegant, and wonderfully fresh. An intense and harmonious white wine that delivers immediate pleasure!

Wine rated (2023 guide) 90/100

Rated Winery Recommended

About the wine:

Very creamy on the nose, with a lactic, cream-cheese-like quality that carries through to the palate, where it’s full-bodied and waxy. Pineapple and peach are slightly underscored by hints of vanilla. It needs a little time to open up, but it offers good concentration and substantial fruit. A blend of Roussanne, Rolle, and Grenache Blanc.

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2026 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

Since the 1970s, this certified organic estate has been one of the appellation’s jewels, appearing in the Guide with unwavering consistency. Boasting a magnificent terroir of 70 small schist plots (58 hectares) that sculpt the landscape, it now benefits from the expertise of the younger generation, inherited from grandfather Jean and father Bernard Vidal, both former presidents of the appellation.
