Reviewed April 2025The ideal marriage of finesse and controlled power, this has a scented nose of preserved lemons, wild herbs, dried peaches, raw almonds and a subtle touch of mild spices. Medium-bodied with a fresh center-palate of perfectly controlled dried-citrus bitterness touching the silky, almost seamless texture. Harmonious, so flavorful and well-composed, it has perfect balance and a long, long, enchanting finish. From vines planted in 1926.

Slightly darker in colour than the domaine's classic Hermitage. Intense quince and pear, very rich and powerful, but has a dry, savoury, edge and a firm, mineral grind, along with dried honey. Real power in this, which balances the richness. Drinkable now, but will age very well thanks to its salinity and extract. Very long. (MW)

I would rank this as the single greatest white I tasted on my recent trip through the Rhône. It’s rare to find a white from this region with such poise and expression. This is a deeply compelling wine that draws you in with a kaleidoscope of flavors, all framed by remarkable balance and precision. Move over Montrachet—this Rocoules reaches beyond to the next level.
