2021 vintage. Medium-heavy body (which, for a Gigondas, is interesting). Big nose, big spice, big extraction. California-styled Gigondas/wannabe CDP but it worked...esp for the ca$hi$h. Pork chops or fowl forever! 4.17.24.

Juicy, tart, peppery, and a bit smoky and floral scent. Quite tannic. Finished off with a bitter and minty note. Too young.

Absolutely super red, rich with great aftertaste. Good on it’s own, but a great match with either a good lamb, beef or even a great cheese plate.

Dirty and I loved it! Iron rich with slight aluminum notes. Integrated red and purple fruit with a gamey, meaty finish. Tobacco leaves, dried dark berries. The wine was sultry and smooth. I’m a sucker for a southern Rhône!
