Quite contained 30 minutes after decanting. Stewed plums and black pepper. Very savoury and earthy on the palate - prunes showing through. Fine yet firm tannins to finish off. Good value coming from Gigondas. Love this style of wine.

80% #Grenache 10% #syrah 10% #mourvedre #gsm Deep ruby color with a hot pink rim. Smells like a bowl of cherries or berries freshly picked. Sweet and tart attack followed by a kick of alcohol and lush red fruit flavors and almost a Popsicle fruit quality. Medium finish. I love the tartness and #mediterranean feel. Overpriced.

Nice Gigondas. I was a little afraid by the wood influence from Dominique Laurent but after all, it was a great experience.
