Professional reviews

Jasper Morris (93)

Jasper Morris MW: ‘Cuvée du Cyprès’. Fresh purple, this is a graceful and charming wine just as Charmes could be with a fruit that soars at the back of the palate, mixing in very well with its oak. Just a faint point of acidity.

Jancis Robinson (17.50)

Succulent red fruit, almost syrupy on the nose. Plenty of sweet spices. If this isn’t oaked, it’s doing an uncanny impression of it. Finely ground tannin that gives quite a lot of chew. The finish is surprisingly intense and powerful after a reasonably straightforward palate, with a hint of smoke. (RH)
