91 Points - Wine Spectator, August 2009
"A nice traditional style, with dried currant, shaved vanilla bean and sandalwood notes up front, followed by olive, tobacco and garrigue notes on the slightly gutsy finish. Drink now through 2019. 8,330 cases made." -James Molesworth

88-90 Points - Wine Advocate, October 2007
"The negociant wine, actually made from declassified young vines off the Beaucastel estate and some other vineyards nearby in the area known as Les Olivets, is the 2006 Perrin et Fils Chateauneuf du Pape Les Sinards. This looks to have fine potential. Deep ruby/purple, with sweet mulberry, black currant and cherry notes intermixed with tobacco leaf, cedar, resin, and licorice, this wine is deep, medium to full-bodied, elegant, and capable of evolving for 10-15 years." -Robert Parker
