A little shy, this six-varietal blend from Cairanne to the north-west of Gigondas is a pleasing if lacklustre village wine. Medium bodied with very fine tannin and (too) gentle acidity, it needs drinking now. Pleasant, but there are plenty of wines in this price point (£13) that I’d choose over this.
