Reviews and Ratings

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

One word to describe the range of wines from H&B is "tactile". These wines have grip and polish. The St.Chinian stands out with blackberry, cherry, plum skin, fruit pit, licorice and some fresh herb. The oak is very well integrated at this point (2017). 92 points. (www.ottawawinejournal.com)
Sarah Tracy rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

As my Southern affair continues, this Syrah dominated bottle shows expressions of schist like minerals and subtle hints of soft oak and ripe Okanagan black cherries. A glass of the H&B St. Chinian delivers a pleasingly rugged and earthy finish. Yum!

Hecht & Bannier is a Negociant who specialize in red wine from the South of France. Two pretty interesting guys, their passion for the region really shines through in their choice of vineyards. Check out their website:

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
