Note di degustazione
Limpid ruby. Pungent red and dark berry and floral scents, along with suggestions of licorice, cola, olive and smoky minerals. Youthfully taut bitter cherry and black raspberry flavors show very good depth and a sharp, spicy jolt of cracked pepper on the back half. Fine-grained tannins build steadily on a long, penetrating finish that leaves dark chocolate and candied lavender notes behind.

This estate continues to fire on all cylinders, and their 2017 Gigondas Tradition is a gem of a wine. Based on 74% Grenache and 26% Syrah that saw a touch of stems and aging in tank and older foudre, it offers classic darker berry fruits, garrigue, new leather, and peppery spice aromas and flavors. Packed with sweet fruit, ripe tannins, and beautifully balanced, it should represent a terrific value.
74% Grenache, 26% Syrah. Cask sample. Tasted blind. Dark chocolate, black cherry, smooth texture and fine tannins that persist on the finish and need bottle age to settle. Not especially lengthy. (RH)
Based on 74% Grenache and 26% Syrah, the 2017 Gigondas Tradition is a medium-bodied, textbook red that’s made in a slightly more forward, charming style than I’m used to from this traditional estate. Sweet raspberry fruits, garrigue, licorice, and spice notes all emerge from the glass, and it has considerable polish and elegance. My money is on it drinking nicely right out of the gate.
