Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
“The 2011 Costières de Nîmes Vieilles Vignes displays a deep purple color with a delicate nose of white flowers, burnt earth, blueberries, blackberries, and incense. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, supple, and pure, with impressive texture and length, it is best enjoyed within the next 4 to 5 years.” (Wine Advocate Oct. 2012 - Robert Parker)

2017 vintage: still very young; powerful aromas, with the same intensity on the palate—well-balanced

We'll have to wait at least two more years. It's still closed at this point.

Tasted in May 2012: still a bit sharp for a wine of this type. It will surely be a delight if you let it age a little longer.
