Tasting Notes

Domaine de la Vieille Julienne Côtes du Rhône Lieu-dit Clavin 2020

"Plenty of flavour here. Cherry and chocolate, dried flower and herb perfume, toasted hazelnut. It’s fleshy and thick with tannin, some orange peel and dried herb twang, a little warmth from alcohol, soft acidity, with a slightly malty finish of good length, albeit a bit soft and muddy. Good wine though." 91 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

In addition to his Vieille Julienne label, Jean-Paul is also making wines under his biodynamic negociant label ‘Daumen’. Even if these wines have the intention to be more accessible, they are anything but simple. Read More
