93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "A solid step up over the Tendresse d'Un Climate, the 2020 Côtes du Rhône Villages Valréas Passion D'Un Terre offers a more meaty, gamey, complex style as well as gorgeous old school-like notes of peppery herbs, toasted nuts, and peppery garrigue. Pure and focused, yet with plenty of mid-palate depth as well as richness, this gorgeous Valréas is going to drink nicely for a decade."

95-97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The flagship from Xavier is the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Anonyme, and in 2019 it’s 60% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah, and the balance a mix of permitted varieties. Partially destemmed and brought up in a mix of demi-muids and tank, it offers a beautifully pure, vibrant bouquet of black raspberries, white and black pepper, candied orange, and violets. Complex, layered, and nuanced, this beauty is medium to full-bodied, has a seamless texture, and a great finish." (10/2020) 93 points James Suckling: "Lots of black ch...

Chante Cigale means singing cicada. The property has been in the same family since the 19th century and is currently run by Alexandre Favier, who assumed the reins at the ripe old age of 20! The domaine is planted to 40 ha of red and 5 ha of white grapes on 45 different parcels throughout the appellation. The red is made with 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault and native yeasts. It is matured in a mix of foudres, tanks, and a small amount of new and used barrels. Poised and well balanced, this wine already betrays its depth and compl...

95 points Wine Enthusiast: "Wafting of garrigue, blackberries and dusty earth, there's so much to appreciate on the nose itself of this inky Grenache blend. Rounded and plush, it's richly packed with plummy black cherry and berry flavors that mesh into fine-grained but gripping tannins. A wine that should reach peak from 2022 to 2037 yet likely hold further still.

It offers a deeper ruby/plum color as well as a great nose of ripe black cherry and currant fruits supported by lots of licorice, black olive, and peppery aromas and flavors.

Amazing complexity with aromas ranging from black raspberries through to candied orange, but also notes of raw meat and licorice. Super-concentrated, super-structured, but also more elegant than a wine built on this monumental scale can theoretically be. Extremely long, complete finish."

Today the domaine owns 39ha of vines, of which 24ha are devoted to the red Châteauneuf. Grapes are harvested and selected manually with yields as low as 20-25hl/ha according to vintage conditions, mostly destemmed then fermented separately, and the wine is aged 12 months, half in oak foudre and half in concrete tank.

Xavier Vignon. One of the finest winemakers you’ve never heard of. Xavier keeps a low profile, though he’s the mind behind a number of seriously high profile estates in Châteaneuf-du-Pape. Raymond Usseglio, La Gardine, Jerome Quiot, Beaurenard, La Nerthe, Mont Redon, Marcoux, and Grand Veneur. That’s a few big-time names, right? So when it came time for Xavier and his partners to make their own signature Châteauneuf, you’d probably have a pretty good idea that the wine would be damn fine. Oh, yeah, it’s damn fine and then some. Cuvée Anonyme — named as s...

Surprisingly, this doesn't possess the same meaty and burly Pegau aromas but showed a pure, clean and precise character.
