With this wine, Adam and I like to let the integrity of the grand old Monte Rosso vineyard shine through, keeping the intense fruit flavors – black cherry, wild blackberry – front and center, then bolstering it with just enough oak to add structure and interesting notes of spice. A ... more

Salmon pink color with orangey-red glints. The bouquet exudes the exuberance of Pinot Noir from the southern Cumières slopes: there is a burst of fresh, sweet red fruits, accompanied by oral (acacia) and mineral hints with grilled and smoked overtones, brought together to form a very full combination which is ... more

James Suckling
I rate wines using the 100-points scale. I have used this point system for close to 25 years. I still believe it is the simplest way to rate a wine, with its origins from grade school in the United States. A wine that I rate 90 points or more is outstanding (A), and worth buying. If I rate a wine 95 points or more (A+), it is a must buy.
