"An expressive blend of floral, spice, stone and both red and blue berry fruit aromas marries into nice rich, round and plump medium-bodied flavors that possess good detail as well as better depth and length on the firm finish. This is really quite stylish and should reward up to a decade of cellar time.

Domaine du Croix is the new incarnation of the old Domaine Duchet, which some old hands among you may remember as producing some lovely wines in the '60s and '70s. The Domaine and its 5 ha of vines were eventually put up for sale and a small group of investors from the US led by Roger Forbes purchased it early in 2005. They installed David Croix as régisseur and M. Croix splits his time between Domaine du Croix and Maison Camille Giroud" - Allen Meadows
