    A blend of several vintages from the vineyards of Sainte-Cécile, Plan de Dieu and Cairanne. Around 75% 2016, 15% 2017 and 10% 2018, all aged in different-sized oak barrels, it boasts ample size and weight on the palate, a soft, supple feel and harmonious flavors of cherry, earth, mocha and dried spice.

    Excellent value for money for this wine from François-Xavier Nicolas, who still surprises me with this non-millennium Solera made from a blend of several wines from different years.

    A very good wine The blend of three vintages makes for a unique taste. Drink now, but a few more years can only improve it.

    Surprisingly complex and intense, I think it's worth many wines from the same appellation that are much more expensive.

    A cuvée that leaves no one indifferent. Richly fruity with a hint of spice, it goes perfectly with beef and carrots.
