Note di degustazione
Shimmering ruby-red. Highly fragrant scents of ripe red berries, kirsch, exotic spices and candied lavender are accompanied by a smoky mineral nuance that builds steadily with air. Smooth and seamless on the palate. Intense raspberry, cherry-cola, spicecake and garrigue flavors deliver a suave blend of power and delicacy. Finishes smooth, gently tannic and impressively long, leaving fierce red fruit and floral notes behind.

A wine I’d put up with anything from the Southern Rhône, the 2019 Gigondas La Colline boasts a vivid ruby/purple hue as well as a sensational bouquet of black raspberries, Provençal garrigue, toasted spices, and flowery incense. It’s full-bodied and opulent, yet as seamless and balanced as they come. Based on a single parcel of Grenache vines aged 18 months in dem-muids, it’s a magical Gigondas to enjoy over the coming 15+ years.
Considering the heat of the year, the 2019 Gigondas La Colline is remarkably fresh and fragrant, with stunning garrigue notes joining hints of rose petals and citrus zest to accent raspberries and red plums. It's wonderfully silky and even airy feeling on the medium to full-bodied palate, despite what must be 15% alcohol. Aged in used demi-muids, there's no oak flavor, just a pleasant, smooth mouthfeel and a long, refreshing finish.
