  Gigondas Tasting (Roswell, GA): Served blind; a see through crimson, color distinctly different from the other Gigondas; a ripe yet youthful nose of raspberry, figs, kirsch; very sappy on the palate displaying ripe fruit for the vintage but also an old vine weight and richness, warm stones, lots of fig and ripe red fruit, kirsh, finishing with the bitter baby aspirin note of Grenache; very tasty.

  Lush fruit, notes of tea and herbs. Delightful, although not terribly complex.

  Fennel, pepper, fresh herbs and notes of plum are followed by a layer of elegant, ripe, sweet red cherries and spice. Produced from 100% old vine Grenache, the wine reached 15.5% alcohol.

  My initial impression is that it is not as good as the 07 (my fave) or 09. But it's enjoyable.

  Some of the very best wine I have ever had from the Chateauneuf de pape region. Very smooth and delicate.
