Wine Enthusiast : 93 (January 2022) This wine comes from nearly 90 acres of estate vines. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, the rich black-currant fruit is poised between density and freshness. The wine will age well, so drink from 2024. Organic. Roger Voss

Vinous : 91 (February 2022) The 2019 Paloumey is bashful on the nose at first, unfuring to reveal blackberry, red cherry and orange rind scents, plus a touch of cedar and mint. The palate is medium bodied with staturated tannins, lovely blackberry and bilberry fruit laced with cedar and graphite, and a poised, persistent finish. What a pretty Paloumey! Neal Martin

VertdeVin: 92-93 (June 2020) « The nose is elegant, gourmand, fruity and offers a fine richness and delicacy. It reveals notes of pulpy cassis, blackberry, small notes of violet associated with touches of small wild berries, crushed raspberry as well as fine hints of blueberry and cuben pep-per. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers a mineral/fresh frame as well as a good definition, gourmandize and tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cassis, blackberry, small notes of cherry associated with touches of pulpy/fresh blueberry as well as fine hints of liquorice, cocoa and coffee. A beautiful wine! »

Tasted : 88 (Avril 2021) Dense dark purple colour. Pure nose offering dark plum, cassis, gentle oak and dry spices. Dense palate, youthful with a firm tannic grip, some oak presence, generous fruit and a quite long finish. Still a bit tight, an age worthy style to drink from 2023. Andreas Laarson
