February 2025 95 Points Decanter

This coastal vineyard near La Londe-les-Maures has long been highly regarded for its white wines, with Semillon taking a starring role and the schist soils and maritime climate reputedly lending a saline minerality to the wines. 70% Semillon, 30% Rolle, aged for four to six months using wooden foudres with regular batonnage to help impart fat and length to the palate and stabilise the acidity and colour. The final blend is determined in December following the vintage, then clarification using bentonite clay and bottling is carried out from the February. Elizabeth Gabay MW: Fresh lemons. Creamy, salty, intense and mouthwatering. Lifted by some pretty blue florals and waxy white blossom. Natasha Hughes MW: Smoky, spicy, toasty oak. Fleshy mid-palate, almost syrupy in texture. A hint of struck match. Generous, ripe stone fruit, orange blossom. Long. Good balance. Joanna Simon: Zesty lemon curd and dried flowers. Lanolin, bitter lemon and green olive tapenade on the palate. Bitter herbs and lemon. Characterful and unusual.

Bright and fresh aromas of peach, melon and violets immediately spring forward with notes of stone and earth in the background. This mouthfilling wine displays a wide range of complex flavors including grapefruit, pear, white strawberry, and jasmine, all supported by a earthy mineral base. The wine has yet to show off its true character and will be even better starting warmer months of 2025.

Flinty gun smoke blows off to reveal delicate notes of peach and lime blossoms, with a briny, savory character. Subtle leesy, toasty hints detail the suave palate, making this more savory than fruit-driven. Elegant, with nice length. Sémillon and Rolle. Drink now through 2028.

The texture is impressive, with its subtle chewiness supporting blackberry pâte de fruit, violet and light mesquite notes. Elements of loam and earthy leafiness bring a savory dimension alongside floral violet and smoke highlights. Charred mesquite marks the elegant and suave finish. Well-done. Mourvèdre, Grenache and Syrah. Drink now through 2032.

Fresh aromas of peach, pear, lemon and fresh cut grass burst from the glass of this pale rosé. It coats your mouth with lively flavors of stone fruits and ocean salinity. A robust rosé with great acidity and long spicy finish can be paired with with light proteins or is complex enough to drink on its own.
