Amazing wine. Darker in the fruit compared to the 2001 Charbonnière, notes of funk, leather, soil. Good freshness, vertical wine with so much character. Mature, but no hurry. La Contadine

Opened and half decanted 2 hrs prior to blind tasting event, then re-bottled for event. Still fruity with pleasing garrigue/spiciness. Smooth on the palate like a really nice CdP overall.

Same impressions as 7/15/19. Du Cayron Gigondas just does not disappoint!
