Wine Spectator

James Molesworth

Well-built, with a slightly chunky frame that should settle in soon enough, as the core of dark currant, plum and raspberry paste flavors have ample depth. Dried anise, sweet tobacco and warm ganache notes fill in through the finish. Fresh acidity lends support, giving this a sense of elegance despite the heft. Best from 2017 through 2023. 120 cases imported.

Vinous

Josh Raynolds

Brilliant ruby-red. Potent red berry liqueur, potpourri and smoky Indian spice scents on the highly perfumed nose, lifted by a mineral flourish. Sweet, concentrated and seamless on the palate, offering intense raspberry, cherry cola and lavender flavors that deepen and gain power with air. The penetrating, youthfully tannic finish shows outstanding clarity and thrust and leaves behind a juicy red berry note.

La RVF

There is a touch of charcoal, with fruit reminiscent of fully ripe cherry. On the palate, the texture is compact and elongated, with a fine grain. A streamlined wine with southern sensuality in its form. A muscular wine, not very fleshy but distinguished.

Description

A fresh and complex red wine from the Rhône Valley

The estate

Acquired in 1905 by the Daumen family, the Domaine de la Vieille Julienne has experienced unprecedented growth since 1990, when Jean-Paul Daumen joined the family estate. This man, passionate about his terroir, develops an ecological management of the vineyard through the limitation of treatments, the abandonment of chemical products in favor of biodynamics. Through the quality and aromatic palette of its cuvées, the Domaine de la Vieille Julienne has become over the vintages an essential reference of the wines of the Rhône Valley.

The wine

Les Trois Sources 2013 from Domaine de La Vieille Julienne is a Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine from a 6.5 hectare vineyard.

Blend

70% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre, Counoise, Cinsault and various white grapes.

Characteristics and tasting advice for the Les Trois Sources 2013 cuvée from Domaine de La Vieille Julienne

Tasting

Color
Beautiful ruby red color, adorned with violet reflections.

Nose
The nose reveals numerous fragrances of black fruits (blackberries, blueberries...), licorice and leather.

Palate
The palate seduces with its intensity thanks to its suppleness and the power of its tannins. In the finish, the wine offers a cleverly dosed acidity that refreshes the wine.
