95 POINTS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
93 POINTS: James Molesworth, Wine Spectator

"This is flatteringly gorgeous; showing dark berry, spicy oak, leather and cake spice aromas on the nose with a hint of cocoa. The palate exhibits outstanding weight and richly textured mouthfeel, wonderfully enhanced by layers of complex flavours and silky tannins. At its best: now to 2032."

"This features a range of dark plum, raspberry and boysenberry compote flavors that have a lightly mulled edge, showing hints of dried garrigue and juniper. Alluring, with a nice caressing feel on the finish."

"Moving to the reds and starting with the single Southern Rhône, the 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Haute Pierre shows the vintage’s charming, front end-loaded style and has lots of strawberry and raspberry fruits, notes of incense and peppery herbs, medium-bodied richness, and just the balanced, charming, endearing style that makes this vintage so much fun to drink."
