17/20 points Julia Harding MW (JancisRobinson.com): "This is the historic red cuvee from Domaine du Pelican. They have been producing it since their inaugural vintage, in 2012. At the time, they decided to vinify together all of their red grapes and thereby created this blend of Pinot Noir (60%), Trousseau (35%) and Poulsard (5%). Hence the name, Trois Ce´pages. The vineyards from which this cuve´e is produced are all located on the village of Montigny-lès-Arsures, where the winery also sits. The soil is made of grey and black marls, partially covered with fallen rocks. The vineyards broadly face west, at an elevation of between 300 and 400 metres. Élevage is in burgundy barrels (50%) and foudre. Unfiltered. Light, bright crimson. Juicy and lively with both red and dark-red fruit. Pure and with a light dusting of stoniness. This is a wine that draws you in with its pretty and vibrant fruit and then holds you captive with freshness, super-fine tannins and great length. Charming but not in the least insubstantial. Delicate and intense at the same time. A wine of real beauty. Drink: 2021-2029. (4/7/21)"
91 points Le Guide des Meilleur Vins de France 2022: "More immediate [than the Trousseau], the crunchy cuvée Trois Cépages synthesizes those lovely qualities of finesse and harmony, converging in a Burgundian spirit."
