Robert Parker
"A New Wonder of the World?"
“The NV Rivesaltes 20-Year-Old reveals a dense, complex, and fragrant bouquet of spices, nuts, and dates, followed by a full-bodied, dense, and complex palate, with a delicate structure and a perfectly balanced finish. Lively and vibrant, this is a superb expression.” (Wine Advocate 2025)
