From the outstanding 2003 vintage and scoring 95/100 Parker points, "A spectacular offering, and one of the Southern Rhone’s top successes in the irregular 2003 vintage is Soumade’s 2003 Fleur de Confiance Rasteau. This blockbuster wine boasts notes of plum liqueur, blueberries, blackberries, figs, scorched earth, espresso, and flowers. Tipping the scales at 16+% alcohol, it is almost surreal in its richness and power. Romero believes it will last for two decades or more, but I would recommend drinking it over the next 14-15 years. This amazing cuvee is one of the finest Southern Rhone wines I have ever tasted outside Chateauneuf du Pape." Drink now - 2034.

From the good 2014 vintage and scoring 88-90/100 Parker points, "Gabriel Meffre’s 2014 Châteauneuf du Pape Saint Theodoric is a rock solid barrel sample that has lots of barbecue smoke and assorted dark fruits, black olive, and charred meat aromas and flavors. Medium plus in body, nicely textured and with fine tannin, it has more depth than a lot of wines in the vintage." Drink now - 2032.

Scoring 92/100 Parker points and from the good 1996 vintage, "The 1996 Hermitage La Chapelle is immensely impressive. The acidity is high. The color is black/purple, and the wine is extremely concentrated, but unevolved and impossible to penetrate. It could turn out like the '83 and never develop as well as its early promise suggests. Nevertheless, it is a massive effort with extraordinary concentration" Drink now - 2032.

From the outstanding 2007 vintage, and scoring 95/100 Parker points,"This cuvée is only bottled in top vintages.

From the outstanding 1998 vintage and scoring 100/100 Parker points "I've been lucky enough to have the 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage A Jacques Perrin numerous times recently and it has never failed to deliver everything I could want from a wine. Getting the best parcel of Grenache from the estate and a dramatically shifted blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre and the rest Syrah and Counoise, it's a massive and concentrated Chateauneuf that surprisingly still seems to show its Mourvedre component front and center. Blackberries, kirsch, truffle, gamy meats, licorice and earth all give way to a full-bodied, seamless, impeccably balanced wine that carries its huge core of fruit with remarkable freshness and grace. While it will no doubt continue to evolve gracefully, it's brilliant today." Drink now - 2035.
