James Suckling: 94 Points
"Powerful, muscular and tannic, this full-bodied Chateauneuf-du-Pape makes a very bold statement. The huge structure is matched by the depth of black and red berry fruit, spices and hot dry earth. Very firm finish, but this should develop beautifully with a bit more time in the bottle. A cuvee based on old-vine grenache with syrah, mourvedre and counoise. From biodynamically grown grapes. Matured almost exclusively in concrete tanks. Drinkable now, but best from 2027."

“The 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Girard shows exotic aromatics of floral-tinged red and black fruits, violets, blood orange, and pepper. Based on 90% Grenache, 6% Mourvèdre, and 4% other varieties, it was partially destemmed and aged 18 months primarily in concrete with small portions in demi-muids and barrels. It's beautifully balanced, has medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This terrific Châteauneuf du Pape will cruise for 10-15 years in cold cellars, and there are roughly 500 cases produced. Drink 2025-2038.”
Vinous Media: 93 Points
"Pronounced licorice, dried herbs, white pepper and blackberry aromatics are all dialed up in the 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Girard, a seductive follow-up to the equally enticing 2023 I tasted in June 2024. This finishes smooth and refined."
