Presse / Kritik
J. Livingstone-Learmonth: 4 / 6 Sterne
"Yellow robe. Has a buttery air, banana, attractive peach, real good clarity in the fruit. The palate assembles white fruits, spring flowers, dabs of lime to freshen it. Suave gras lies dead centre. Has a low acidity feel. Ginger, toasted notes show towards the finish. Its grip is quiet and sure. This is textured and elegant, holds a sunny roundness. "It compares in analysis to the 2015," Jean Gonon. From spring 2019. 2028-30"

Das Weingut
Zitat J. Livingstone-Learmonth: " An STGT (Soil to Glass Transfer) domaine par excellence, and fantastic value and consistency - these red Saint-Josephs are top notch Syrahs. The Vieilles Vignes red, occasionally produced in small quantities, is exceptional. The Gonon brothers, true countrymen and taught by their father, make delightful, delicious wines of genuine pedigree. There is a sensible transfer of fruit from mature vineyards to the cellar, where methods are calm and watchful. No new oak in sight. The white is a high-class example of Marsanne, laced with a little Roussanne from a top, south-facing vineyard, Les Oliviers. Both red and white can evolve well over 20 years in the good vintages."
