The 2018 Blanc is wonderfully polished and refined in a more finely-cut style than the 2019. White orchard fruit, lime, mint and jasmine all confer notable freshness. The 2018 is a wine of tremendous pedigree and class, but it needs a good bit of air to truly open up. There is a crystalline energy to the 2018 that is incredibly alluring.

Wine Advocate 92 Bottled just a few weeks prior to my visit, the 2018 IGP Saint Guilhem le Desert Blanc was already looking good. Pear, melon and tangerine notes mingle on the nose of this medium-bodied blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Petit Manseng and Viognier. Like always, it's a touch off-dry on the finish, balanced by some delicate Viognier-derived tannins and peppery spice. (Published June 2019)

Style Guide
a deeply reverberating wine with forward, piercing yellow-peach exhibits a masterful balance of pure persistent exotics flavours cut by spine-tingling acidity. Richly structured, powerful in concentration and anchored in earth, but maintains a salty, tangy freshness that’s persistent throught a long finish.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
