"Great everyday wine
Here's a lovely Côtes-du-Rhône, one of the most faithful illustrations of the Southern Rhône Valley! "Refined nose of cherries, blueberries, herbs and warm spices. Medium-bodied, with very fine tannins. Velvety texture, full of elegance and vivacity. Tasty finish with a touch of pepper. Enjoy now. (James Suckling 2023)

A successful ambition, both in Luberon with Vieille Ferme and on the other terroirs presented. A perfect mastery of fermentation and appropriate ageing are key factors in this success.

Lacks a little finesse. A little hard at first, needs decanting.
