Terrific, full-bodied Wine from a classic Gigondas grower (Yves Cheron is the owner of Domaine Grand Montmirail). Irony, meaty nose with roasted herbs and blackberry extract. Bulky in the mouth, with rich, intensely minerally dark flavors. Long finish with youthful but soft tannin. Tad more acidity and this would have been off the charts.
