This wine was riper and more fruity that the Gigondas we had earlier in the evening, but the similarity between the two was striking (the varietals in this are southern Rhone). For my pallet the fruit was a little too overbearing, hiding the complexities. This wine also had a nice core of acidity. I was pleasantly surprised overall.
