Reviews

James Suckling – “A ripe and powerful wine for one of the low-profile appellations of Beaujolais, with a pronounced blackcurrant-pastille note, but also savory and wet-earth aromas. Quite a serious tannin structure that’s married to crisp, mineral acidity. All this needs some time to fully harmonize, but this should age well. From organically grown grapes.” (93 Pts)

Vinous – “Glistening ruby. Fresh red and blue fruits, violet and baking spices on the highly perfumed nose. Juicy and gently chewy in texture, offering sappy cherry and boysenberry flavors that flesh out and turn sweeter through the mid-palate. Fine-grained tannins add grip to a long, spicy finish that features repeating florality and a sneaky hint of gaminess.” (92 Pts)

Wine Advocate – “Bursting with aromas of sweet berry fruit, plums, warm spices and vanilla pod, the 2020 Antoine Sunier Régnié is medium to full-bodied, lively and charming, with melting tannins and a sapid finish.” (91 Pts)
