“A very deep nose, cassis, leather and ripe red fruits. Real density and concentration on the nose. A dense and pure palate with a softness of fruit, beautifully tuned tannins – delicate and layered, savoury and with poise and elegance – a pepper note on the layered finish. ” 17 pts., Alistair Cooper MW, jancisrobinson.com

2020 Vieux Donjon (Michel Lucien), Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Rouge 12x75cl
A beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied, classic effort from this team, the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape boasts a deeper ruby/purple color, traditional notes of ground pepper, Provençal garrigue,... smoked meat, and red and black fruits, a terrific mid-palate, ripe, silky tannins, and a great, great finish. This is an outstanding vintage for this cuvée that’s going to benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age and keep for 20 years or more" 94-96pts, Jeb Dunnuck

2020 Domaine Les Pallieres, Gigondas, Racines 6x75cl
From extremely old vines are planted in the foothills of the Dentelles de Montmirail and a Grenache-dominated blend with deep aromatics, wild brambles and sweet/savoury spice on the nose. A dense, dark, grippy palate with pronounced mineral notes that shows deeper yet extremely finessed side of Gigondas.

2020 Melody, Crozes-Hermitage, Premier Regard 12x75cl
Hints of white pepper and spice on the nose lead you to a delightful warm and forward mouthful of berry fruit compote, vanilla and liquorice. Excellent weight and texture with malleable tannins that make it very accessible in its youth, yet built for medium term enjoyment as well.

2020 Jasmin, Cote Rotie, Giroflarie 12x75cl
Ampuis-based Jasmin has the advantage of choosing from 12 different plots for blending this exceptional Cote-Rotie (95% syrah, 5% viognier) which he ages for 18 months. His 'Giroflarie' is... considered by many to be the most 'Burgundian' of cuvées in the appellation, drinking quite deliciously in its youth yet also packing the stuff for a good 20 years of graceful ageing.

2020 Paul Jaboulet Aine, Hermitage, La Maison Bleue 3x150cl
“Mostly sourced from les Murets, the 2020 Hermitage La Maison Bleue is a solid effort, with appealing notes of blackberries, raspberries and espresso on the nose. It's full-bodied and rich, yet... streamlined and focused, with savory tones of black olives appearing on the softly dusty finish. It should drink well young, yet age well for more than a decade.” 92-94 pts, Joe Czerwinski, www.robertparker.com

2020 Domaine Vieux Telegraphe, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Rouge 6x75cl
65% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault and others. Cask sample.
Spicy, rather funky character on the nose. Sweet fruit but there is a hint of astringency here which takes away from... the whole. Acidity quite forward. Berry fruit on the palate. Firm tannins, less immediately appealing than many a 2020 Châteauneuf. 15.5+ pts., www.jancisrobinson.com

2020 Pierre Jean Villa, Saint-Joseph, Preface 6x75cl
Pierre's many years in Burgundy beautifully influence his take on Rhone varietals and terroir. Here, a St-Joseph of deep, lively cherry, blackberry and violet aromas, with notes of bacon, liquorice... and black pepper corn. Nicely concentration and energy on the palate that gives lively red and blue fruit and floral pastille flavours. Long, sappy, spicy, floral and gently tannic closing showing a laser-like delineation.

2020 Yann Chave, Crozes-Hermitage, Rouvre 12x75cl
Yann’s ‘le Rouvre’ cuvée steps things up a gear, with an extra level of depth and intensity. A selection of the oldest parcels of syrah in the south of Crozes, and aged for 12 months in one... and two year-old barrels. Violet florals, blood citrus and white pepper on the nose; rich and powerful on the palate with intense, black cherry and an intriguing interplay of sweet and bitter black olive fruit. Ultra precision and polish on a long, expansive finish.

2020 Stephane Ogier, La Rosine , Collines Rhodaniennes IGP 12x75cl
Peppery, juicy with great purity, clarity and bags of ever-so-welcome bittersweet olive tapenade fruit. Gentle, silky tannins and invigorating, savoury snap finishing up. From one of Northern Rhone's most revered producers, one of Rhone's best-value syrahs.

2020 Stephane Ogier, Cotes du Rhone, Le Temps est Venu 12x75cl
Very much and old-vine grenache nose with meaty notes and good freshness and precision that is countered by a subtle richness and ripeness. Herbs, spice and fine tannins on the finish making a great case for this appellation. Perfect for when your Chateauneufs still need a few years.
