"The 2014 Côtes du Rhône Villages Cuvee Trois Cepages is an even split of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah that’s raised completely in concrete tanks, with no wood whatsoever. Provencal, elegant, beautifully pure and with pretty notes of crushed flowers, violets, black raspberries and raspberries, it’s not a heavyweight, yet shines for its purity and drinkability. It should be ready to go right from the start."

"A blend of equal parts Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre, the 2012 Cotes du Rhone Village Cuvee 3 Cepages also shows the purity and suppleness of the vintage, with ample floral, berry, mint and incense-like qualities flowing to a medium to full-bodied, textured and beautifully balanced feel on the palate. Coming from tiny, tiny yields (we’re talking on the order of 10 hectoliters per hectare), it is a stunning success in the vintage and should evolve gracefully for 7-8 years."
Om Domaine Aphillanthes
Domænet råder over ialt 37 ha. beliggende i det sydlige Cotes du Rhone delta. Ejeren Daniel Boulle overtog domænet - som 4. generation - i 1986, hvorefter han straks iværksatte renovering af kældre som vinmarker.
Vinene blev meget kendte i slutningen af 1990erne, da det amerikanske vinjournalist Robert Parker slog vejen forbi på en søndagstur, og skrev så siden hen om domænet: ("maybe the richest Cotes du Rhone I have tasted"). Idag er vinene blandt de bedste og mest kendte Cotes du Rhone Villages der kan opdrives
