Wine Spectator
"Since 2006, this estate has been owned by the Cazes family (of Château Lynch-Bages in Pauillac), and the wines seem to be improving in quality with each passing year. The 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is full-bodied and supple. This rich, tannic blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre spent time in large oak casks, old barrels, and concrete tanks, resulting in a powerful, concentrated wine bursting with cherry and spice. ” (Wine Advocate 2017 – Robert Parker) Delivered in a wooden crate for any order of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding “Point Relais” delivery method)

About the estate:
This very old estate, with its excellent location and soils composed of pebbles, clay, and safre, was taken over in 2006 by the Cazes family, owners of Lynch-Bages in Pauillac, among other properties. Only one cuvée is produced for both white and red wines, and the most recent vintages are undeniably well-crafted, in a classic style that is gradually asserting its own personality.

Review by Mr. FRANCOIS J. Posted on May 10, 2022
One bottle is open, and the second one—which is still sealed—tastes pretty average... I have four left. MAY 2022: OPENED TWO BOTTLES—UNDRINKABLE!!!!!!, THE BIGGEST SCANDAL ON THE SITE BECAUSE THE WHITE WINE ISN'T ANY BETTER

Tasted in October 2020. The wine is at its peak; it may be starting to decline. The balance is perfect, but it seems to have reached its full potential. As a result, the value for money isn't great.
