88 Points

Tuesday, December 6, 2011 - A lovely balance, refreshing lack of overwhelming heat, sugar and alcohol. Soft tannins, garrigue and leather. Feels even and honest. Drinking this just now with Jane alongside these amazing lamb loin chops with thyme and a purée of potatoes and turnips; this is a fantastic little Gigondas. Balance, poise; I'm so very proud it panned out the way it was meant to. It's not often I see Gigondas this old; very pleased to see where it goes with a producer that seems to have things under control.
