(2018年分數)

🏅James Suckling 96pts

Aromas of blueberries and wild herbs, as well as raspberries and a complex, spicy and fragrant edge. Blood orange and pomegranate here, too. The palate is smoothly emulsified and has red-cherry, raspberry, orange and blood-orange flavors. Pithy kick on the finish and plenty of concentration. Very resolved. 100 days on skins. Drink over the next decade.

From 130-year-old vines, this Grenache offers an enticing, intriguing perfume of strawberries still on their stems, cut flowers in water, vanilla bean and florals. The mid-weight palate is starting to show some bottle age, with slightly cooked red-berry-jam flavors, but there’s still a lick of juicy freshness and a tannic tug.

Polished, creamy and stylish, with framboise, maraschino cherry, raspberry puree and accents of clove, green tea, milk chocolate and rosemary on an elegant frame.

🏅James Suckling 96 pts

Pale ruby in color, this has aromas of dried herbs, such as sage and thyme, as well as capers, peppercorns, anchovies, mushrooms and sour cherries. It’s medium- to full-bodied, soft and full of flavor, with a creamy texture and attractive salty and herbal undertones. Very intense, while remaining gentle and elegant. Extended time (372 days) on the skins. From 130-year-old vines.

The 2022 The Tri-Centenary Grenache spent 372 days on the skins. In essence, the fruit is pressed off the day before they pick the next vintage. The wine doesn't see any oak during its élevage, and so the texture of the wine is derived from skins and seeds. To explain the process a little: the fruit is picked, destemmed and wild fermented for 10 days in tank. Once fermentation has finished, everything stays in situ, on skins, in that same open fermenter with a floating lid. Over time, the skins drop down to the bottom of the tank, and finally, when it is ready to be pressed off, the free run and pressings are blending, clarified, etc. and bottled. Voilà. So, on the nose, this 2022 leads with bergamot and graphite, strawberry and red apple skins. In the mouth, the wine is fresh and powdery, with an elegant framework of tannin and acid that intersect at the back of the palate in a chewy, ductile sort of fashion. This is lovely. I find myself liking it more and more.
