"Sourced Maucoil's youngest vines (still an impressive 40 years old) this sun-kissed, fruit-forward red highlights the strawberry and red-cherry buoyancy of Grenache with sharper cassis and blackberry flavors and the brambly herbaceousness of Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsualt. It's a penetrating, richly concentrated red but zesty and vibrant too, finishing on fine, tautly composed tannins. Approachable young, it should improve through 2030. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"This organically grown blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault offers ripe but restrained flavors of dried plum and blueberries edged by shavings of peppery spice, baked clay and graphite. Plump in texture and framed by fine-grained, silky tannins, it's enjoyable immediately but should hold well through 2028. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Plush black plum and preserved cherry flavors are soft and fleshy in this profoundly ripe, inky blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Dashes of dried sage and wild mint lend a touch of elegance to the midpalate, as do fine, feathery tannins on the finish. At peak now-2027. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Bold black-cherry and blueberry notes are tinged by anise in this opulent, enveloping wine. It's velvety and rich on the palate, with a long finish that meshes seamlessly into fine, integrated tannins. This hedonistic, deeply fruited wine is ready now but should drink well through 2026. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Mit einem Hauch von Nougat unterlegtes dunkles Beerenkonfit, reife Pflaumen, dezente Kräuterwürze, tabakige Nuancen. Saftig, gute Komplexität, angenehme Fruchtsüße, eingebundene Tannine, feiner Schokotouch, zart blättrig im Rückgeschmack. Peter Moser"

"Rippling, ripe fruit counteracts deep mineral tones in this bold, brooding wine. Black plum and berry notes are spiced with anise and vanilla, but also shades of dried sage, thyme and earth. It's a concentrated red with a slightly drying, emery-board finish."

"Maucoil's 2013 is a sturdy, full-bodied wine. It's plummy, dense and earthy, with nuances of cracked pepper and mocha showing themselves on the palate. The finish--long, firm and peppery--bodes well for aging. Drink now-2025."

"Young red. Pleasant, expressive nose showing abundant freshness and intermixing floral, fruity and spicy notes. On the palate, volume, fullness and freshness. The aromas are nicely highlighted by evident yet quite refined tannins. Lovely fruity finish."

"Medium depth of colour. Nose of slightly jammy ripe fruits. Supple palate, melted tannins, soft substance. The fruit is precise, upfront and pleasant. Drink with grilled meat."

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Chateau Maucoil Chateauneuf-du-Pape" the vintage 2003 with 85 of 100 points.
"A soft style of wine that has earthy characters. There are layers of dryness, but the plum-flavored fruit shows every sign of maturing quickly over 2-3 years."

"Bien construit entre fruit et élevage. Assez léger en bouche, le vin trouve un joli volume en milieu de bouche sans grande longueur en finale."
