2013. Always reliably delicious with typical Southern Rhône opulence but rich texture and elegance too.

This lovely Gigondas combines drinkability with depth and interest. Dark cherries and brambles, spicebox, garrigue and violets. 20% Syrah in this wine, and it's enough to keep me coming back for more.

Smooth, velvety, rich, full wine. Dances on your tongue and goes down easy. Taste lingers nicely.

Still not a huge fan of Grenache, but this one is well made. With Ryan and Steph.
