January 23, 2023 - Echoing the comments of others, this is a fully mature, rather one-dimensional red. I’d be delighted if this was a Cote-du-Rhône Villages at $20, but it was a $52 Gigondas that really doesn’t deliver for the price. Intense raspberry ganache up front and that’s it. No residual tannins, low acidity and somewhat warming on this finish. No emerging terroir notes that suggest anything other than a Southern Rhône red blend that is mostly Grencache (and it is that). Have not and would not buy this wine again.
