Odd notes on the nose: whiskey, cognac. Doesn’t drink hot at all, though. Opens with big fruit, blackberries and cherry. Moves on to a strong acidity that balances nicely, though. — 5 years ago

The color appears on the lighter side of what I would expect from a Rhone syrah. Ruby, quite transparent but no bricking yet. The wine airs well with a lot of flowery characters - rose petal, violet, and a slight hint of vine stem. Structurally in tact at 4 years of age. Medium plus acidity and tannin. Elegant with, again, floral showing on the palate backed by red cherry, some earthy, and mushroomy notes as well as slight meatiness. Good quaffable Saint Joseph that would do probably better with 4-5 years more of cellaring time. 89+ — 8 years ago
Very smooth and yet with a pleasant kick. With meat tom sauce and rice. 13%ABV — 9 years ago
This is what wine is about! The wine is alive and vibrant. Beautiful red fruit with crushed flowers. — 9 years ago
A bit closed at the moment. Remember tasting this at the domaine a few years ago and it was great. Will need a few more years to come around again. Tannin and acidity to last! — 10 years ago
Mas Jullien ‘Les Depierre’ 1995 (Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault). Utterly spellbinding. This puts any doubt about the potential quality for Languedoc wines to rest. An intoxicating yet delicate nose of redcurrant, blackberry, and graphite, with hints of smoke, paprika, and liquorice at the very end (not unlike a Barca Velha opened recently). Gorgeous palate; still tannic, with great acidity. Very long and with a clear sense that it has just come intimista own. A shame most of these bottles will have been opened a long time ago... — 5 years ago
Upon recommendation from the wine ship guy, i opened this 2-3 hours before tasting, which was good, except for tge fact that it got too warm. I popped it back in the fridge for 20 minutes and then it was perfect. Very fruit forward and fresh with a nice structure despite its youth (2017 tasted in August 2019). All the guests loved it. — 6 years ago

16/20 (89/100) Солоноватый аромат с нотами яблок и лимонов. Умеренная тельность, высокая кислотность. Чистое и приятное, солоноватое на вкус вино. (06.04.2019) #vinnatur2019 — 5 years ago

Medium dark color, luscious full body. Overripe fruit, earth, must on nose. Medium acid, very faint tannin, likely from stem and seed. Slight pepper finish on nose. Overall complex and awesome for the price — 9 years ago
