Review: Daily Mail, 29 Feb 2008

Wine: Chateau de Millet Blanche, £24.50

'Extremely robust, Millet tastes and smells like a Black Forest gateau - the real thing, that is, not those frozen blocks you were fed as a child. Luxuriant notes of plum and black cherry make it ideal with caviar, charcuterie and foie gras - pretty much the staple diet of the whole of the Gascony region. Verdict Sour cherry notes. Serve frappe, in place of vodka, with dishes of smoked fish or caviar.'

Review: Daily Telegraph
Having experienced this wonderful hospitality it is gratifying to see that others recognise this generous and welcoming family. However, being woken at 6.00am to move ones vehicle to enable the bottling to take place, especially after a long night experimenting with vintage Armagnac, is not be recommended!

'Out the other side of Eauze, the Deche family at Chateau de Millet is particularly welcoming and, in the shape of 65-year-old dad, Francis, particularly able to speak of anything to do with wines and spirits over the past 200 years. Don't let the battered hat mislead you!'
