90 POINTS ROBERT PARKER’S WINE ADVOCATE
The 2014 Juliénas Vieilles Vignes comes from 50- to 80-year-old vines. The fruit is clean and pure: redcurrant mixed with raspberry and Morello cherries that are nicely defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe red cherry fruit, a gentle grip and a long, quite silky finish. This is a harmonious, well-crafted Juliénas to enjoy over the next 5 to 8 years.

WINE SPECTATOR
This light-bodied red has a pleasant, crisp acidity that highlights the red currant, raspberry and spice flavors. Notes of violet and smoke are supported by lightly grippy tannins on the clean finish. Drink now. (11/2015)
