This is drinking well, with plenty of fruit and integrated tannins. It is however not particularly complex and hardly a step up from Gaillard's very good St Joseph Clos des Cuminaille.

Une robe jaune foncé. On voit la concentration. Un nez sur le miel, les fleurs blanches et la poire. Ça donne l'impression que c'est chaud. La bouche ne trahit pas le nez. Nous sommes dans le même registre. Ça manque un peu de fraicheur et d'acidité, sinon c'est très bon.

Exploring Northern Rhone Syrah (Paris): bricky colour, fading at the edges. Nose of dried flowers, potpourri, pepper, spicy. rRed fruits, a little cocoa, well-integrated tannins, good length. Delicate Cote Rôtie, in a very good place.

2010 Pierre Gaillard Côtes du Rhône Les Gendrines

Viognier more

4/20/2024 - mattym19 Likes this wine: 90 points

Very nutty, toasted sesame, rich and vinyl-y, fresh squeezed ginger, really ripe apricots, a vaguely stone fruit-pit bitterness, somewhat boozy but not out of control. Huge body but enough acidity to balance it. Short finish but it works. Good on its own but borderline amazing paired with a seared tuna steak on top of charred veggies and a mild curry sauce.

D'emblée on dénote le côté épicé, poivré de l'apelation. La tension s'efface cependant rapidement et on a droit a des arômes plus distendus: mures, romarin, huile d'olive

Drunk with cheeses and pavlova for lunch. 12%. Deep copper/bronze. Amazing nose of stewed ripe apricots. Still has lovely freshness on the palate, but this bottle was probably past its peak. Good length and persistence. Drink up.

Cellared for 11 years since last bottle and it paid off. This pours medium ruby in the glass, with faint bricking toward the rim. This smells of classic Northern Rhone, not hugely expressive but a nice little bit of complexity and an appealing expression. The nose is of creosote, crushed granite, blueberry, cherry, black pepper, seaweed, and toasted brown spices. The palate enters on rich expansive blueberry with medium tannin and medium acid. The finish closes nicely on crushed granite with black pepper and while not terribly long it is pleasant. All in all this has aged nicely and has improved well over the course of its 17 year life.

Impromptu Lunch

Towards end:

White pepper; flesh of ripening pear.

Saultana with lace of prune., delicately stewed.

Rose pettles. Rose scented marine air. Air of dark, dulled yet still moist strawberry.

Under tounge: slight of white peach.

Lean and dry; far way too young to have developed savoury weight and texture.

Nevertheless, excellent value with fine prospects yet to enjoy.

2 glasses by Coravin, remainder of bottle finished several days later.
Very approachable.

Such ripe smooth fruit, beautiful on the nose too, and that unlikely combination of grilled bacon fat and roses/violets which is often mentioned but IMO rarely fulfilled.

The rest of the bottle seemed a little more robust and reserved, maybe Coravin helped to oxygenate the first two glasses more?
However, it still showed most of the above characteristics and went very well with a rib eye steak, and then just sipped on its own.

Deep purple in the glass. Quite rich, cassis and darker fruit to the fore. Definitely detect the new oak but it is not overwhelming and starting to integrate.
This is a concentrated wine with enough acidity to last and I think will improve over the next 5 years but certainly enjoyable now.

Color very yellow. Weird taste. Wax, honey, orange peel (white part of it), chamomile and sherry fino notes, long aftertaste and high alcohol. Kept to long?

2/16/2024 - sjw_11 Likes this wine: 93 points

Deep, bright red. Opens up quite quickly to reveal very juicy, fleshy plum flavours. Very pure. Quite aromatic with florals with violets and wet stone notes. Fleshy and long with sweet purple fruits on the palate with quite restrained tannins. The relatively large 10% Viognier component shows in the openness and the floral aromas, leaving a package which is delicious now while some other wines from the region would likely still be brooding at this age.

2007 Pierre Gaillard Côte-Rôtie Cuvée Unique Viallieres

Syrah more

2/5/2024 - Beaunedoc Likes this wine: 93 points

Initial impression of blackberry and a hint of mint, perhaps a bit old. Over 2 hours it perked up and seemed fresher. There’s a ripe acidity and notable length. At 24 hours it added complexity and more aromatic character. A chocolate malted milk element on the nose emerged. I think it is totally ready to drink, and is very satisfying as a table wine. Decant it and savor it.

Grenache Blend, Grenache more

1/24/2024 - philmtl Likes this wine: NR

This is a blend of Syrah, Grenache Noir and Carignan. But from what I could read this is mostly Syrah and Grenache at proportions of about 50/50. The fruit is from the younger vines.

We had this slightly chilled and it worked well. Nose of slightly candied red berries, some pepper and just a tad of garrigue. The palate is gourmand and precise: great red-fruited concentration, lively acidity and decent mineral finish. The acidity and minerality really give this a lot of freshness. The tannins don't stick out but play joyfully with the fruit. Very easy to drink and quite lovely. This would be spot on with charcuterie.
