Wine rated (2024 guide) 95/100 (No. 10)

Rated estate (2025 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the wine:

Roasted and acidic notes define the exceptional Reserva Especial No. 10, a blend of 2020, 2019, and 2018, enhanced with a touch of 2017 and 2016. Only 2,000 bottles of this little gem were produced. A wine that is both dense and very composed, with fine tannins and great liveliness. The magic of Roc d'Anglade is back!

About the estate:

Rémy Pédréno has been based at this 9-hectare estate in the historic Langlade region since 1999, alongside his wife Martine. Having previously worked in the northern Rhône, notably at Domaine Rostaing, this passionate winemaker from Nîmes quickly established himself among the region’s leading producers, crafting elegant, taut, and airy wines on this marl-limestone terroir that has been renowned for centuries. Aging in large oak casks and meticulous management of the lees have taken this estate to a new level, making it an undisputed benchmark today. Jeremy Stevenson joined Martine and Rémy after gaining experience in New Zealand, Alsace, Chile, and Oregon.
