Note di degustazione
The 2015 Gigondas Tradition more firm and tannic, yet has plenty of ripe black cherry and blackberry fruit, lots of licorice and roasted garrigue aromas and flavors, medium to full-bodied richness and outstanding length. It needs 2-3 years of bottle age to let the tannin integrate. The 2015 is 83% Grenache and 17% Mourvèdre and it was mostly destemmed and aged in foudre (25% new) and tank. I always think of the wines from Domaine la Bouïssière as being very traditional, yet they’re certainly not dogmatic and the wines see partial destemming as well as some new oak. Nevertheless, these wines speak clearly of Gigondas to me.

The richly textured 2015 Gigondas Tradition deserves a couple of years' cellaring before being enjoyed. This full-bodied blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah boasts gorgeous aromas of stone fruit and dried spices, a velvety texture and a long, complex finish.
Saturated ruby. Intense red and blue fruit aromas, along with suggestions of star anise, lavender and white pepper. Sweet and penetrating on the palate, offering sappy, focused black raspberry and boysenberry flavors that deepen and spread out steadily on the back half. Smoothly combines power and finesse and shows no rough edges. Fine-grained tannins sneak in late on the long, juicy finish, which leaves behind a suave floral pastille note.
70% Grenache, 30% Syrah. 54% destemmed. 65% matured in foudres, 35% in tank. Cask sample. Tasted blind. As with La Bouïssière Font de Tonin (tasted alongside), there’s a slight stewed-fruit sensation initially but this grows into something delightfully funky and ethereal. Really powerful but has lift-off. Such a combination! (JR)
