While this doesn’t make an impression like Saint Cosme or charm quite like Gour de Chaulé, this is noteworthy for its accuracy and QPR. Let’s try not to overthink this wine. It’s quaffable and tastes like Gigondas from 2017 i.e. abundant red and dark fruit with good structure and silky texture. Continuing the trend towards higher quality, this is yet another example of Caroline Frey’s philosophy taking over at PJA.

This time around was not as good as previous two times. Found it acidic and tannic. Over the hill?

Nice wine from Gigondas region. Grenache 80% Syrah 10% and Mourvêdre 10%.Nice balance of dark and red fruits, cedar, garrigue, and pine cones. Medium bodied...translucent ruby red...very smooth! Alc. 14.5 not sure where?
