Note di degustazione
Moving to the 2015 Gigondas, these were all tasted as barrel samples. The 2015 Gigondas Aux Lieux-Dits (75% Grenache, 10% each of Syrah and Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault) offers classic notes of garrigue, ripe cherry and strawberry fruits, and lavender to go with a medium-bodied, elegant, Burgundian-like texture. Drink it on release and over the following decade.

No surprise, the 2015 Gigondas Aux Lieux Dits is the most approachable of the 2015s, as it had already been fined and blended when I sampled it. It was aged 90% in foudres and 10% in terra-cotta. Bright cherries and raspberries carry attractive hints of ground spices in this medium to full-bodied wine. It does still have a bit of chewy tannin to resolve.
Ruby-red. Ripe red fruit and floral pastille aromas show very good detail and an energizing suggestion of white pepper. Palate-caressing raspberry and bitter cherry flavors blend depth and energy with a smooth hand and show no rough edges. Fine-grained tannins lend shape to a very long, red-fruit-dominated finish that features a subtle touch of star anise.
A fluid, fleshy and deeply structured wine with dark cherry and blackberry fruit flavors amid sturdy yet supple tannins. Good weight and presence. Drink now.
