RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine noté (guide 2014) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
"This young trading house is the result of a partnership between the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and Nicolas Jaboulet (ex-director of the family firm Paul Jaboulet et Fils). Two great names from the south and north of the valley, bringing out a small collection of crus from the north. The wines are selected in barrel before malolactic fermentation at the winemakers', and then aged at Perrin, near Orange. Blending then follows. The style of the whites is precise, dry, square, with a good intermediate level. To date, we prefer the brightness and density of the reds.

Vinous
Wine rated (2019 guide) 90/100
About the wine:
Deep ruby. Aromas of smoky black berries, olive and candied violet are enhanced by a spicy nuance of pepper. Supple, full-bodied palate with flavors of bitter cherry, cassis, licorice and cracked pepper. In a fruity style, with dusty tannins building slowly to a spicy, persistent finish.

Wine rated (2018 guide) 90/100
About the wine:
The 2017 Crozes Hermitage boasts a saturated purple color and a mouthful of aromas and flavors of blackberry and black cherry, incense and pepper. It has good acidity, medium body, present tannins and plenty of length, making it an exceptional, high-quality wine to keep for 6-7 years.
