    “One of the world’s great reds.” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com

    Top-Score 98 Points, Decanter Magazine "Heart-fluttering aromas, the sort that genuinely make you stop mid-sentence and just stare into the glass. Cassis and blackberry form the core, but they’re wrapped in crushed mint leaves, tomato stem, rosemary and a glossy swirl of cherry coulis. The palate is a swooping aeronaut – an acrobat, a trapeze artist – swishing and swooping with effortless fluidity and high-toned freshness. There’s concentration here but absolutely no flab; everything is swept along in a torrent of acidity. The tannins prickle quietly in the distance, still quite firm, suggesting a very long future ahead. Thrilling to drink now, but clearly built to age. A singular, supernova wine. Drink 2026-2038" - Mar 2026

    Description

    50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Syrah. Trévallon is known for its long aging process, more than 2 years for its reds. Racking is kept to a strict minimum, the lees found at the bottom of the barrels continue to nourish the wine during the ageing process. No de-stemming, no added yeast or sulphur. Aged 24 months in foudres and barrels. Fining with fresh egg white. No filtration before bottling. For several years, rainfall has been non-existent in the summer. However, in 2021 they had 20 mm in July and 25 mm in August, small but beneficial rains for the vineyard. One of the coolest summers in recent years: Average temperature of 24°C in July and August compared to 27°C in 2022.
