Jeb Dunnuck (96+)Aged only in older foudre in comparison and a blend of mostly old vine Grenache (90% Grenache, 5% Mourvedre, and 5% Cinsault), the 2010 Secret de Gabriel is a beauty! Showing thrilling, Grenache dominate aromas of blackberry, licorice, roasted meats, pepper, and hints of leather, this powerful, full-bodied 2010 has a structured, focused feel in the mouth and comes across as very traditional and age-worthy. While beautifully textured, rich, and balanced, it is still tightly wound, with chewy, mouth coating tannin and in need of 3-5 years of bottle age. It will have upwards of two decades or more of total longevity. |

Vinous (93)The inaugural 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le Plateau de Mont-Redon develops in the glass with intense tobacco, dried red fruits, forest floor and sandalwood. Full-bodied, round and expansive, the 2016 concludes with a long and nuanced finish. Were it not for a slight trace of alcohol heat, I’d score it even higher. |

Vinous (92)(made from two-thirds grenache and one-third syrah): Opaque ruby. Heady scents of red berry preserves, lavender, anise and sandalwood, lifted by a peppery topnote. Offers intense, palate-staining raspberry and cherry-cola flavors that gain weight with air. Impressively lively and pure on the persistent finish, which features gentle tannins and a late note of bitter chocolate. |

Jeb Dunnuck (94-96)The 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc looks to be the finest white to date and unquestionably ranks with the finest whites in the vintage. Beautiful notes of crushed rocks, honeysuckle, quince, and spice all flow to a medium to full-bodied, balanced, powerful white that’s flawlessly balanced. It’s one of the rich yet elegant whites that can drink nicely on its own or shine on the dinner table. |

Wine Enthusiast (96)2016 marks the first bottling of de Nalys under the Guigal umbrella and this intensely ripe but pristine wine makes a promising debut. It's luscious but elegant, loaded with rich black-plum and cassis flavors firmed by piquant hits of licorice and pepper. Silky tannins make it approachable already but the wine should improve through 2036 and hold further still. |

The Nalys Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2018 stands as an epitome of the renowned Vin-gastronomie of Southern Rhône. Masterfully crafted by Château de Nalys, it brilliantly captures the nuances of a combination of 13 noble grape varieties, each cultivated in three distinct terroirs of the Nalys estate. The maturation process included 12 months in French oak foudres, enhancing its complexity and depth. The result showcases a striking, rubescent-hued wine, imbued with layers of ripe black cherries, rich dark chocolate, and sun-drenched Provençal herbs. An irresistible hint of black truffle provides the finishing touch, indicative of this celebrated region. As the first vintage released under the Guigal family's management, a guarantee of quality and authenticity, the Nalys Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2018 is an oenophile’s delight. Its considerable structure and enduring finish make it a perfect companion to well-seasoned, robust cuisines. A truly fine example of the fusion of time-honoured production and modern winemaking brilliance. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Grand Vin offers more depth, with a darker core of fruit as well as complex notes of peppery garrigue, loamy earth, and incense. The balance here is spot on, it's medium to full-bodied, and has great tannins, all making for a brilliant Châteauneuf du Pape with tons to love. It shows the sunny style of the vintage as well but doesn't lose a beat with regards to elegance and finesse. Give bottles 3-4 years and it should have two decades of overall longevity. |

Wine Advocate (91)Most of the structure, tannin, and backwardness appears to have found its way into the top cuvee, the 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape La Cote Ronde. A deep ruby color is followed by aromas of spicy new oak, herbes de Provence, earth, pepper, and kirsch liqueur. Pinot Noir-like in the mouth, with moderate tannin in the finish, it will be at its finest between 2005-2013. |
