| “They are definitely on my very short list of the vintage’s superstars and should be at the top of every Châteauneuf lover’s shopping list ….
Sophie [Armenier] is adamant that the key to the finesse of their Vieilles Vignes bottling is the clay-and-chalk soils from which it is sourced. ‘It is not an opinion but a fact that these vineyards produce the most elegant wines of the appellation,’ she told me. I wouldn't argue.” Josh Raynolds, Vinous |
| “Catherine and Sophie Armenier continue to fashion one of France’s greatest wines …. One of the appellation’s great traditional names as well as one of the many biodynamically farmed vineyards of the area, sisters Sophie and Catherine Armenier run this estate with extreme passion and attention to detail. As I have indicated in the past, this family can trace its origins back to the mid-14th century. Domaine de Marcoux owns very old vines from which they produce nearly 3,000 cases of their Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and about 400-500 cases of the Vieilles Vignes.”
Robert M. Parker, Jr., Wine Advocate |
| | | | "Vibrant black cherries, mulberries, peppery herbs, and spice are just some of the nuances in the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape, an utterly classic Châteauneuf du Pape that's medium to full-bodied, has the vintage's seamless profile, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. This beautiful, quintessential effort can be enjoyed any time over the coming 15 years or more. The 2020 is a normal blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvedre, 7% Syrah, and the rest Cinsault, brought up mostly in concrete tank, but with 20% in tronconique tanks and 5% in old barrels."

| | | "Impressive depth of colour for the vintage, this is extremely round, fresh, clear and well-defined. Tannins are present and fairly strict in style, but they're ripe, and all in all this is exceptionally promising. Not huge in fruit or body, but well-balanced and precise. from 120-year-old vines planted on north-facing clay and sand lieux-dits of Charbonnières and Esquières. Fermented in concrete, aged in foudre."
