Wine Information
This Gigondas 2001 is the perfect example of a great southern Rhône wine. The Grenache exhibits the ripeness of the fruits and the charming texture of the wine, the syrah is showing its true color and peppery aromas and eventually, the mourvèdre is expressing the big tannins and the massive texture of this superb wine.
Vinified in the purest tradition, this wine is opulent now and will age well for the next 8 or 10 years.
