Ciroc
Grape 40% ABV ABV Maison Villevert / Diageo
30 March 2026
A standout bottle
Tried this side by side with several competitors at a tasting and it stands head and shoulders above them. The nose gives you citrus blossom — it's immediately apparent this is quality. Then the palate opens up with Silky and refined and the grape character shines through. The smooth and clean with a gentle fruity sweetness. I've already ordered another bottle. Excellent work from Maison Villevert / Diageo.

Exceptionally smooth with real character
This is exactly what premium vodka should be — clean and smooth on entry but with genuine character underneath. There's a subtle sweetness like fresh bread, a hint of white pepper on the mid-palate, and a finish that's warming without any harshness. Neat or over ice, it's superb.

Decent everyday vodka
A reliable pour that won't blow your mind but does the job. The nose has white flowers — the review is accurate there. The palate gives you Silky and refined, which is fine but a bit safe. I keep reaching for other bottles when I want to sip neat, but for cocktails it's hard to complain. The Medium-long is clean.

Solid middle-of-the-road
It's a solid vodka. The nose has Elegant and fruity with fresh grapes and citrus blossom, but on the palate the Silky and refined doesn't quite deliver the complexity I was hoping for. The smooth and clean with a gentle fruity sweetness is a bit brief. Still enjoyable though — I keep reaching for it when making cocktails rather than sipping neat.

Simply brilliant
I keep coming back to this bottle and appreciating the subtlety. The citrus blossom on the nose is genuinely there if you take a moment to notice. On the palate, Fresh grape character with subtle fruit sweetness is rich and satisfying, with Silky and refined developing. A vodka that rewards attention. At 40% ABV, the proof is perfectly judged.

Stunning quality
What a beautifully crafted spirit. The nose gives you white flowers and Elegant and fruity with fresh grapes, and on the palate it's all about Fresh grape character with subtle fruit sweetness. The mouthfeel is particularly impressive — silky, full, and rewarding. The finish rounds everything off with smooth and clean with a gentle fruity sweetness. Anyone who says all vodka tastes the same hasn't tried this. The review here nails it.

Better than expected
Mixed feelings. On the nose I got the Elegant and fruity with fresh grapes — that part is nice. But the Fresh grape character with subtle fruit sweetness didn't match the promise for me. Mid-palate feels a bit thin. Still, it's better than many bottles at this price and the Medium-long is reasonable. Worth trying at least once, especially in a Martini.

Nice but slightly overpriced
Good quality spirit but slightly overpriced for what it is. The white flowers is the highlight — very clean and well-presented. On the palate, the Fresh grape character with subtle fruit sweetness is fine but not exciting. At $35, I'd expect more character. The Medium-long is pleasant but brief. A reliable mixer.

Worth every penny
I was reading the tasting notes in the review and thought they sounded too good to be true for a vodka, but they're accurate. The citrus blossom is genuinely there, the Fresh grape character with subtle fruit sweetness delivers, and the smooth and clean with a gentle fruity sweetness is exactly as described. Served this at a tasting with friends last weekend — everyone was surprised how much character it has. We did a blind comparison against two other brands and this won hands down.

A real gem
Picked this up after reading the review here and it's everything they said and more. The citrus blossom drew me in from the first pour. On the palate, exceptional smoothness are elegant rather than aggressive — exactly what you want from a quality vodka. The smooth and clean with a gentle fruity sweetness is clean and inviting. Makes a brilliant Martini and equally good sipped neat. This will be a permanent fixture on my shelf.

Blown away by this vodka
Bought this on the strength of the review here and I'm so glad I did. The citrus blossom on the nose are subtle but present, and the palate delivers — Unlike any grain vodka with wonderful texture. The finish has Medium-long that proves vodka is far from flavourless. Hats off to Maison Villevert / Diageo — this is exceptional craft. Already on my second bottle.

Expected more
Not terrible but not worth the premium. The nose promised Elegant and fruity with fresh grapes and some depth, but the palate is flat and the Medium-long disappears too quickly. I've had better vodkas at half the price. The Unlike any grain vodka the review describes wasn't apparent to me. Perhaps I got a bad bottle.
