Domaine Grand Romane Vieilles Vignes Gigondas Red Rhone Blend

Saman had this 11 years ago

Lots of dried herbal and olive notes in this bad boy. Luscious and pretty well-balanced.

Licorice, spice and rich dark fruit. Not much on the nose but palate is broad, expressive and pleasant

Bold and tannic. Full bodied and full of red and black fruits.

Excellent wine had on thanksgiving

Drinking really well and paired perfectly with pandemic Easter turkey

Would like to try this with a little age on it.

Ripe cherries and dark red berries with white pepper on the palate. This wine is excellent and ready to drink now

Saw this was on the WS top 100 and saw it at my local shop so thought I would give it a whirl. Can’t tell color because in a colored tumbler. Nose of blackberry, black tea, and asphalt with a touch of ginger. A solid earthy wine with good balance. Full-bodied with coating tannins, and a good finish.

Oaky front. White pepper, cedar, vanilla, cooked strawberry, nice acidity, young and vibrant. Will improve in the bottle.
