Gigondas

Full

Cork

Blueberry and liquorice touches to the blackberry fruit. This has more depth and expression than most this year. Good intensity and has plenty of personality. Firm acidity and strong, ripe tannins make for a robust but fresh and well-balanced Gigondas. Grown on clay limestone vineyards, with some Grenache up to 40 years old, the Syrah even older. Destemmed, fairly long maceration (35 days). Unfined, unfiltered.
