"Good ruby-red. Subdued but complex, spicy nose dominated by plum, minerals, iron and fruitcake. Sweet, dense, chewy and ripe, with lush plum and chocolate flavors and terrific verve. Builds slowly and lingers long on the aftertaste, with melting tannins. Very refined Gigondas."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
