There's no doubt about the greatness of this vintage and the 2007 Gigondas from the Faraud sisters is a flamboyant, straight up sexy wine that's loaded with notions of garrigue, incense, flowers, mint and peppery herbs. Sweetly fruited, beautifully concentrated, full-bodied and seamless, with the purity and freshness that's the hallmark of the vintage, drink this killer Gigondas anytime over the coming decade.

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.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
