The 2008 vintage was rated: Gault Millau 15/20
The Rhône Paradox white blend harmoniously combines Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. It is an expressive wine that unreservedly reveals aromas of fresh fruit (yellow peach, pear) combined with notes of white flowers. Good body, supported by a fresh and lively finish, rounds out the experience. A superb 2009!

Gault & Millau Wine Guide

Guide des Vins Gault & Millau

Rated estate (2012 guide): 3 stars (Very high quality production)

About the estate:

“Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still heavily influenced by the cooperative. With a deep attachment to the Costières de Nîmes, he made his home at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of cuvée: Rhône Paradox, focused on the freshness and purity of the fruit; Compostelle, the result of careful selection from old vines, as well as grapes from the best plots. And finally Armonio, born from a collaboration with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, notably).”
