Lafarge-Vial Chiroubles 2023
$95.00
A tiny 0.35ha vineyard, planted in 1969. South/southeastern exposure, granite soils, Viala rootstock. Fully destemmed, ambient yeast fermentation in concrete tank, gentle extraction. One year aging in older 228 and 350-liter barrels, with racking in April.
‘Medium purple. Cherry and fresh strawberry, vivid and energetic in the mouth, the fruit is almost fizzing, then fills out further behind with a long cherry fruit finish. Strict and sensual at the same time. Drink from 2026-2029. Tasted Dec 2024.’ 90 points Kenna Wells – eRobertParker.com March 2025
‘The 2023 Chiroubles presents a vibrant medley of raspberries, blueberries and delicate hints of fresh-cut lilac and violet petals. Airy and round, this stands out as the most approachable of the lineup; the wine keeps you going back for more, particularly with its refreshingly salty finish. Drink 2025 -2031 ’ 89-90 points Jasper Morris JMIB.COM
