Notes : Robert Parker 89/100, Bettane & Desseauve 14.5/20
Luc Baudet produces this prestige cuvée from old vines on the southern slopes of the Costières, which is the most accomplished possible expression of the appellation's terroir. Compostelle rouge 2007 stands out for its intense aromas of black cherry, fig and clove, its substance and smoothness, supported by a fine tannic structure. An aromatic palette of quality and appreciation!

Round attack, then the aromas develop, in addition to black fruits, fresh leather and sweet spices dominate (cinnamon, nutmeg). The finish is softly textured with silky tannins and a lovely freshness.

About the domain :
"Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region still strongly marked by the cooperative movement. Attached to the Costières de Nîmes region, he settled at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs enables him to offer three types of cuvée: Rhône Paradox, based on freshness and purity of fruit; Compostelle, the result of selection from old vines and grapes from the best plots. And finally, Armonio, born of a meeting with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, among others).
