Domaine des Pothiers Côte Roannaise "La Chapelle" red 2022

La Revue du Vin de France (Oct. 2023): 93/100. "Part of the emblematic parcels of the domaine, La Chapelle, located at 520 meters above sea level, delivers a great expression of 2022. One enjoys all the indulgence of the grape variety with sweet cherry, while sensing a unique granitic definition (dacite), which gives it length, depth, and harmony. Indecently indulgent, it will age gracefully for at least ten years."

Guide RVF des Meilleurs Vins de France 2024  (Aug. 2023): 91/100. "The reds delight us right from the cuvée domaine. Still in aging, La Chapelle delivers a fine austerity. This cuvée from a parcel of green granites located at altitude (520 m) is one of the most refined expressions of the appellation."

Guide Bettane + Desseauve 2024 (Sept. 2023): 92/100.
