Dunnuck 93:
The 2022 Côtes Du Roussillon Bila Haut Blanc is based on 60% grenache Blanc, 20% Roussanne, 10% Grenache Gris, and the rest Macabeu. It has a brilliant nose of crushed citrus and pineapple as well as an almost Riesling-like sense of minerality, petrol, and flowers. It's medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, has integrated acidity, and a great finish.
And Decanter 92:
Very smart oak work melds with the natural ripeness of the fruit to present a harmonious and deep aromatic display. It’s full-bodied but not fat, enjoyably ripe, with pear and spiced pineapple. Fruity but finishes dry, with a slatey mineral note. From the Latour-de-France area. Cold settled, fermented in stainless steel, aged in demi-muids for six months with lees stirring for the first two.
And Jancis Robinson, too:
Some smokiness, some very pretty daphne-scented and honeyed florals. Really good density with layers of flowers, pollen nectar, green spice and stones and a smidgeon of oak spice plus a flood of sumptuously juicy peach fruit.
