Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2019 guide) 15/20 (Very good wine)
Domain rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the wine:
Powerful fruity nose, peppery and floral nuances, vigorous, fleshy palate, full of flavor and freshness. A tasty, harmonious wine full of charm. We love its energy.
About the domain :
Robert Joyeux's career as an industrialist went hand in hand with extensive renovation work on the estate, enabling him to create the Corbières of his dreams, elegant and expressive of the complexity and variety of its terroirs. Since 2011, he and his wife Geneviève have devoted themselves full-time to their estate, and their son Hubert has just joined them to promote this fine cru to the four corners of the world. The estate has been certified organic since 2013, and the grapes are cared for to perfection. Gentle extractions, no crushing of the grapes and the use of gravity ensure generous yet refined and sincere wines. The cuvée Inédite has depth and staying power, while the cuvée numéro-1, exuberant and full of character, deserves its name. We were also seduced by the new Cuvée La Coume, tonic and fresh. White and rosé wines are delicious.

About the domain :
La Cendrillon? A place in Ornaisons, at the foot of the Fontfroide massif, an old inn along the Roman road that linked the Narbonnaise region to Aquitaine. A native of the region, entrepreneur Robert Joyeux took over the family estate in 1993, and has spared no expense in investments: new plantations, and the construction of a winery. Today, the 42 ha estate has been certified organic since the end of 2012.

Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Rated (2018 guide) 89/100 (Very good wine)
About the wine:
Cuvée Inédite 2015, aged partly in foudre, is slightly less concentrated and ripe than the impressive N°1. Aromas of garrigue appear as slightly resiny, complementing well those of berries and mixed fruit. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with honest length and a finish dominated by menthol and rosemary notes.

A year after my first review, I had to change it. The passage of time in bottle has done the wine a lot of good, and the Shiraz is now well blended. It's a shame I didn't plan for it!
