Another last bottle of a lot that often disappointed, but eventually "got there", confirming my recommendation to give the bottle some time to improve. Very typical Rhône expression, medium bodied, with cassis, liquorice, tea, garrigue in the lead. Drink now.

Finally the Benjamin of the excellent Grand Romane is rounding ist earlier rough edges, now offering a fairly balanced wine, with much Rhône typicity. Medium bodied, cassis, liquorice, tea, garrigue. Could further evolve over the coming 2-3 years.

Good wine for the start of an evening of 3 Gigondas wines. Integrated flavors, red and dark fruit over a dark foundation. Didn't have the depth I would have expected.

Medium bodied, cassis, liquorice, tea, garrigue, but remaining superficial.

Hopefully just and outlayer bottle. Short, lots of acidity.
