Robert Parker

“A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 20% Carignan, aged exclusively in concrete tanks, the 2016 Cuvée Constance is a thing of beauty. Quite floral, with plenty of cherries and raspberries. Full-bodied, supple, and creamy on the palate, it offers a rich, ripe, and sensual texture that lingers deliciously on the finish.” (Wine Advocate 2018 - Joe Czerwinski)
