Robert Parker
"The 2015 Côtes du Roussillon Villages Cuvée Constance is the estate's entry-level red, and it's already a beauty to buy by the case. Black raspberry, cassis, pepper and wood fire emerge from this wildly charming cuvée, which boasts ample fruit and texture, and a superb finish." (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker)
