Robert Parker

"Les Hauts de Julien 2014 is easily the most impressive wine from the Perrin family. A blend of co-fermented Syrah and Grenache that comes from high-altitude plots, it presents sublime notes of black and blue fruits, violets, crushed pepper and wet pebbles. Medium- to full-bodied, elegant, straightforward and silky, this is a high-class Rhône Méridional wine with a foot in the Rhône Septentrional." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker)
