100/100
RVF
"Instant gratification!"
"One of the three greatest wines in this tasting. I tasted it and compared it with its peers several times. Each time, the intensity of its explosive fruit gave it unparalleled harmony and scope. A sumptuous wine with notes of blood orange and Burlat cherry, with a deep body that never strays from the finesse of its safres soil. (RVF magazine no. 685 - November 2024)

About wine:
One of the three great wines of this tasting. I tasted it and compared it several times with its peers. Each time, the intensity of its explosive fruit gave it unparalleled harmony and scope. A sumptuous wine with notes of blood orange and Burlat cherry, with a deep body that never strays from the finesse of its safres soil.
About the estate:
Located in the northern part of the Châteauneuf appellation, in the village of Courthézon, this estate rich in old vines has belonged to the Charrier family for three generations. Caroline is in charge of winemaking, while her brother Frédéric looks after the vines. The Cristia, Pointu, and La Guigasse vineyards produce the Châteauneuf, which is made from 99% whole-harvest Grenache and aged in concrete vats.
