EXPERTS OPINIONS ABOUT THE 2007 VINTAGE
When you participate in the project, you will receive the 2007 vintage from the owner’s private collection.
Robert Parker designated 2007 as "vintage of a lifetime" for the Southern Rhône
“This has dark, brooding aromas of crushed plum and black tea, followed by rich yet racy graphite, espresso, singed iron and mulled blackberry fruit. The long, sleek finish lets the iron note hang on. Dense, but pure at the core, with solid grip.”
–James Molesworth for Wine Spectator
“More dense and structured, yet still vibrant and very pure, the 2007 Abelard is 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah. Loaded with deep blackberry and black cherry fruit, licorice, crushed stone and hints of roasted herbs, it is full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with knockout precision and focus. It is serious stuff and still a baby. Drink it over the coming decade.”
-Jeb Dunnuck for Wine Advocate
“Moving to the reds and a perfumed, lightly textured and elegant effort, the 2007 Heloise is 60% Syrah, 37% Grenache and the balance Viognier, that’s vinified separately before blending prior to bottling. Fresh and complex, with vibrant black and blue fruits, violets and spice, this medium to full-bodied 2007 builds in the glass and is seamlessly textured and never puts a foot wrong.”
-Jeb Dunnuck for Wine Advocate
Concours Mondial de Bruxelles
PRESS REVIEWS
“The wines are exceptional in every sense of the word.”
“If grenache were to become the next "it" grape, Chêne Bleu's grenache-driven "Abélard" could one day maybe achieve "cult" wine status.”
“The worlds is full of prime wine-growing regions, which can rival the tried-and-true classics. Don’t be afraid to be a pioneer.”
“It was a Provençal Aliot 2007 from Chêne Bleu that won universal praise – its extra oak helping to keep its structure in place as it refused to cow to conditions.”
"Nicole describes the culture at Chêne Bleu as one of the 'best of'. 'My life is geared to bringing out the best of what is there and following that potential'”
