2001  Cuvee Barberini

"The outstanding 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Barberini (a blend of 40% Grenache, 40% Syrah, and 20% Mourvedre aged 24 months in 40% small barrels and 60% neutral wood foudres) boasts an inky/ruby/purple color in addition to a big, sweet nose of creme de cassis, melted licorice, graphite, smoke, and truffles. Full-bodied, lush, and expansively flavored, with tremendous purity as well as density, this brilliant 2001 is already starting to strut its stuff." - 93pts WA

St. Joesph Chemin Faisant -- "Chemin Faisant" or "On the Way" is a complex St Joseph with peppery aromas on the nose followed by gorgeous depth and freshness. Structure and finesse reign supreme in this beautiful bottle.

2022  Cote Rotie

"While Elsa Gangloff declined my request to taste at the property, arguing that all the wines were already sold, I was able to acquire a bottle of 2022 La Barbarine. Unfurling from the glass with a vibrant, spicy bouquet of violets, rose petals, pencil lead, dark berries and dark cherries intertwined with delicate notes of pepper, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and textured, with good depth at the core and framed by velvety tannins, culminating in a long, ethereal and delicate finish. Less dense and deep than La Sereine Noire, this is an elegant, energetic Côte-Rôtie that should age nicely over the next decade." - WA

2022  Cote Rotie

"While Elsa Gangloff declined my request to taste at the property, arguing that all the wines were already sold, I was able to acquire a bottle of 2022 Cote Rotie la Sereine Noire. Upon initial encounter, the wine appears introverted and shy but gradually reveals complex aromas of black olive, pepper, coniferous forest, bay leaf and dark berries, all enhanced by hints of smoke. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and deep, it's layered and generously extracted, energetic and lively, framed by structured tannins that assert themselves to a long, mineral and pencil lead-inflicted finish. This is a rather deep, seamless wine that needs time to chill out." - 96pts WA (& 96pts Vinous)
