TASTIING NOTES
Clean fruit enveloped in pepper, undergrowth with a touch of wild herbs. It has all the hallmarks of a classic Gigondas though the sizeable dose of Syrah brings a different violet tilt to the balance of flavours. Medium to full bodied with fine, yet firm tannins and a great length of flavour. This wine is best drunk from 2024, and be kept up to 10 to 12 years from the vintage date.
