“The ever-reliable Pierre Vidal, who tirelessly offers us top-tier wines from various Rhône appellations. Aged simply in tanks for 18 months, this prodigious Rasteau is all the more remarkable for its luscious nose of candied blackcurrant and chocolate-coated morello cherry, and its rich, dense, and very fresh palate, enhanced by balsamic notes of resin and clove, and wrapped in smooth, briny tannins. Faced with such grace, the jury bows in admiration. » (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

About the wine:
The ever-reliable Pierre Vidal, who tirelessly offers us top-tier wines from various Rhône appellations. Aged gently in tanks for 18 months, this prodigious Rasteau is all the more remarkable for its luscious nose of candied blackcurrants and chocolate-covered morello cherries, and its rich, dense, and very fresh palate, enhanced by balsamic notes of resin and clove, and wrapped in smooth, briny tannins. Faced with such grace, the jury bows in admiration.
About the estate:
Pierre Vidal, who lives in Châteauneuf-du-Pape with his wife—a winemaker—founded his wine merchant business in 2010. This oenologist, trained in Burgundy, has assembled a small team and, in 2019, built his own winery to refine his single-vineyard selections, with a focus on organic and vegan wines. Wines of consistently high quality.
