"Her får du en kraftig, elegant og raffineret Châteauneuf du Pape lavet på 65% Grenache Noir fra domænets skattekiste af næsten 100 år gamle vinstokke og 35% Syrah fra 30 - 40 år gamle vinstokke. Vinen er rig og fyldig og byder på overdådige aromaer af brombær, solbær og mælkekaramel, som i smagen suppleres af lakrids, tobak og cedertræ. Eftersmagen er intens og varer ved og ved." Wine.dk
"Lots of smoke and tar, but also forest berry fruit and floral nuances wrapped around an incredibly powerful structure, and all the concentration to go with that. And then comes the dense and balanced finish that is not a jot domineering. A cuvee of wine from century-old vines of grenache (60%) and syrah (40%) from vineyards on sandy soil. Aged for 15 months in barrel, then aged for another year in foudre. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold." James Suckling 98p
"Bottled at the same time as the 2021s, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape La Reserve Secrete is a 60-40 blend of Grenache and Syrah that spent 18 months in barrel, then was blended and put into foudre for another 12 months. It does show considerable vanilla and cigar box cedar, then outbalances those beautifully with bold cherries, blackberries and graceful top notes of garrigue. Full-bodied, rich, creamy and lush, it shows stunning texture and length and traces of warmth and dark chocolate but also a surprising amount of elegance." Robert Parker 98p
