92 Points Halliday Wine Companion"Rhone appellation were promoted to cru status in 2010. Skilled winemaking combined with swanky consulting has resulted in this very smart grenache-dominant red which is aged in both concrete and oak before light filtering. Hedonistic aromas with a richk fruity palate and a healthy dose of s ead to a long finish." - Jane Rakison
Rhone-style red blend. This is a beautiful, perfect expression of plump juicy warming Grenache. This is the village level wine, and there is no need to look further in Rasteau. André Roméro is the legendary wine maker, now joined by his son and nephew. These are tiny yields, the grapes are 100% hand picked and the selective picking and extraordinary vinification process would suggest a product of twice the price. Robert Parker described the estate as "The superstar of Rasteau… drop-dead delicious red wines."
