“La Résistance” GSM has just been judged the world’s best, with a 96 point score and a gold medal at the revered Decanter World Wine Awards in London! The judges said of the 2023 vintage: “Bountiful fresh cherries and raspberries burst over the vanilla chocolate intensity. Weighty and complex with lush tannins and a vibrant acidity woven into the frame.”
Here’s what some other experts said:
95pts+ “What a cracking grenache, shiraz and mourvédre blend! Medium crimson with vibrant raspberry, blackberry and blueberry aromas, with baking spices, peppercorn, graphite, dried citrus rind and purple florals. Juicy, dark and blue fruits on the palate with the most powdery of tannin clouds, bright acidity and a long draw of juicy, spicy fruit. It’s just so damn easy to drink. Woah!” - Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
95pts “ Medium-deep crimson. Lovely raspberry, blackberry pastille aromas with roasted walnut, hint peppery notes. Red and black fruits on the palate with roasted nut, hint wax polish notes. Finishes chalky/ al dente firm and crunchy with peppery/ spicy notes. Lovely fruit complexity and vigour. A cracker at this price point. Drink now–2030” - Andrew Caillard MW & Ken Gargett, Vintage Wine Journal
“ Spicy and lifted aromas of black cherries, mulberries, coffee beans, dried herbs and spice. The palate is bright and fresh, with finely framed tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of plums, charcuterie and blueberry compote. Nicely balanced and plush.” - James Suckling
