2016 Gigondas L'Argnee

Deep, shimmering ruby. A highly complex bouquet evokes ripe red fruits, candied flowers and incense, with a smoky mineral topnote that gains power with aeration. Juicy, alluringly sweet and energetic on the palate, offering intense raspberry preserve, floral pastille, spicecake and mocha flavors that slowly deepen through the mid-palate. Blends power and finesse with a sure hand and finishes extremely long, with fine-grained tannins adding gentle closing grip.
