93-95 points Vinous
The 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau is a solid effort from the Brunier family. The 2021 La Crau unfurls in the glass with a fragrant perfume of crushed violets, lavender, strawberry, raspberry, dried herbs, mint and a dash of white pepper. It is full- bodied and layered, showing a refined profile marked by soft tannins and lively acids. Not as powerful as either the 2020 or 2019, but the 2021 is certainly the most elegant rendition among them.

91 points Vinous
Full-bodied, firmly structured and well-concentrated, the 2022 is a juicy and intricate red that's neatly balanced by fresh acidity. A savory finish of good length confirms a lovely Gigondas that will benefit from two more years in bottle. Drinking Window: 2026-2032

90-92 points Jeb Dunnuck
Always an impeccably made wine, the 2022 Gigondas (80% Grenache and 10% each of Syrah and Mourvèdre) has lots of red berry fruits as well as Provençal spice, ground pepper, and savory herbs. It has a terrific core of fruit, fine tannins, and outstanding length.
