Note di degustazione
Gigault's Cuvée Viva is a real overachiever in this vintage. Plump, flavorful and complex - especially in its peer group - the Cuvée Viva is a terrific, budget-friendly Bordeaux. Sweet red cherry, plum, tobacco, dried flowers and licorice add character and nuance throughout. Drink this 100% Merlot over the next handful of years. Tasted two times.

Rather animal on the nose. Wild! Tough. (JR)
The 2015 Gigault Cuvée Viva jumps from the glass with remarkable richness and intensity. Sumptuous, racy and intense, the Cuvée Viva is a picture-perfect example of the year. Silky tannins add to an overall impression of creaminess in a ripe, flamboyant Côtes de Blaye that is a real overachiever. Raspberry jam, menthol and sweet spices wrap around the expressive finish. Julien Lavenu and Romain Bocchio are the consulting winemakers. Tasted two times.
