The antithesis of many 2007 Chateauneufs, the 2007 Les Sinards surprises for its fruity immediacy. Its cherry and raspberry fruit is fresh and bouncy, making it a cheerful, fruit-forward wine for drinking over the next few years. ——J.C.(10/1/2011)—— 88

Remember those vaguely anise-like white gumdrops? That describes the aromas and flavors found in the 2006 Les Sinards, albeit without the sugar. It's a medium- to full-bodied largely neutral white that should be consumed over the next year or two.——J.C.(4/1/2010)—— 86
