Expert opinion

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Rated (guide 2022) 93/100 (Vintage 2017)

Domaine rated (2023 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Paul Old cultivates these old vines between Corbières and Roussillon biodynamically. The minimalist approach in the cellar produces both highs (Prioundo and L'Extrême, in white) and lows, with gas saturation in certain cuvées and an occasional lack of clarity. The wines do, however, know how to age, and benefit from aeration.
