Guide des Meilleurs vins de France 2025: 91/100
The L'As du Pique cuvée from domaine Pique-Basse is an organic wine with a strong personality! The nose of this Grenache-dominated Côtes-du-Rhône Village Roaix opens with notes of blackcurrant liqueur, candied orange peel and Morello cherry, followed by a blend of grilled and even smoky spices. On the palate, the suave, round, fleshy attack of ripe red fruit is followed by notes of spice and pepper, all in perfect balance with a lovely structure and tightly-knit tannins.Domaine de Pique-Basse is a superb estate in the Roaix appellation. Originally from Franche-Comté, Olivier Tropet trained as a nologist. In 1998, he took over his grandfather's vineyards in the Rhône valley, at the foot of the Ventabren massif and to the east of the Rasteau terroir, an east/south-east-facing vineyard facing Mont Ventoux. Guide des meilleurs vins de France 2020, domaine 1 étoile: "We've been following Olivier Tropet for several vintages, and each time his wines seduce us with their rightness of tone, whether it's on the too little-known Roaix terroir, which he enhances wonderfully, or with his sumptuous Rasteau."
