Critic's Notes

John Gilman - View From the Cellar, 94

“The 1990 vintage at Mont-Redon is remarkable for its freshness and purity in what was a very hot and roasted year in Châteauneuf du Pape. The bouquet is deep, complex and tertiary, as it wafts from the glass in a complex blend of Cuban tobacco, dark berries, espresso, spit-roasted venison, sous bois, a touch of truffle and an earthy base of soil tones. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, focused and fully mature, with a very suave attack, a fine core of fruit, melting tannins and a very long, refined and focused finish. Just a lovely bottle of Châteauneuf du Pape that transcends the general parameters of the vintage with its refined and elegant style. (Drink between 2010-2030)”

John Livingstone-Learmonth - Drink Rhone, *****

“... all power on the nose – ripeness ... aromas of the garrigue – a powerful show of southern climes in the bouquet. The palate is a mass of flavour ... dark fruit and tannins emerge on the aftertaste, are really well set into it. Big wine indeed. I rate it among the best of the 1990s ... chock full of gutsy content, but has been well fashioned.”
