We tasted nine Minervois Red Blends (Languedoc region of France), an unknown AOC to our group. This was designated a “vin de table” because as a single-varietal, it did not conform to the Minervois arcane AOC rules. I loved it anyways — 9 months ago

Nice Village Rhône blend with bright Ruby and florals overflowing. Almost a cherry taste. — 3 years ago

Amazing ‘garigue’ with a more rounded fruit on the background and in the immediate aftertaste after the sip. Great experience. 2010 is still very young in 2022 — 3 years ago

Depth and beautiful structure with silky tannins, dark fruits, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg. Full body. Plenty of time ahead for this one. — 2 years ago

Full bodied and complex wine. Notes of blackberry, currant, pepper and floral. Wine feels a bit young even after decanting for 2+ hours. Excited to see what it will be in a handful of years. — 3 years ago

Enjoyed at parallax. Fruit forward, smells like a French wine but drinks like a Cali blend. — 4 years ago

A nice Grenache blend that pairs well with chili. September 2023. — a year ago

Given that I am the only reviewer thus far, I feel the need to provide an update. Enjoying my last bottle now. The nose is of prune, stewed fruits, earth. On the palate, the tannins are now fully integrated, muddled blue and black fruits dominate, with some raisin and prune. A much better showing than my prior review. I feel almost apologetic because this is a very good Gigondas. I wouldn't hold this longer though.

Excellent CA. Cab-etc. blend. Balanced, full bodied, dark and intense...great with steak, red meats but we'll drink w/more. Deep berry forward on the palate - maybe hip, still tasty and a bit bitey on the finish if you care - not enough to offend. I don't get the fantasmic world of arcane nose and flavor some raters experience. Que sera', sera', will drink again 14.9% alcohol that seems higher... — 4 years ago
