Coteaux d'Aix en Provence 2010 Trevallon

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (94)

A blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, the 2010 Alpilles is a beauty! Aged 24 months in primarily foudre (5% in barrel), it sports an inky, opaque color as well as a deep, raw bouquet of cassis, liquid herbs, olive tapenade, blood and serious minerality that continues to change and evolve over the evening. Medium to full-bodied and surprisingly elegant and pure on the palate, it possesses perfect balance, fine tannin and lively acidity that shines on the finish. Gorgeous all around, yet still a baby, it needs another year or three of bottle age and will evolve gracefully for 12-15+ years.

James Suckling (90)

A solid, grippy style, with a baker's chocolate note wrapped around a core of dark plum, bitter cherry and black currant fruit. Dark olive, singed alder and allspice notes fill in on the finish. Pleasantly rustic, featuring some lightly chewy grip that still needs to be shed. Decant now or cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.
