At its traditional best, wines from Gigondas deliver the robust red fruit and body of a fine Chateauneuf du Pape with greater minerality and even more of the classic scents of the southern Rhone: wild rosemary and thyme, savory black olive, and limestone minerality. This is one of the best we’ve tasted in that style in years (and certainly the best priced!). It’s around 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre – the classic Rhone GSM blend – from 30 year-old vines on a site that looks down on Chateauneuf from under the shadow of the Dentelles de Montmirail. A three-week fermentation in concrete brings out lovely structure and aging in concrete and old oak foudre keeps the ripe fruit and garrigue character pure and shining through. Lovely with lamb, herbed and roasted eggplant, or even just a really good burger, this is highly recommended.

"More wild strawberry, Asian spices, and Provençal garrigue notes define the 2020 Gigondas Le Fauquet, a medium-bodied, seamless, incredibly pretty wine that has a light, elegant texture. Based on Grenache and Syrah aged all in concrete tank, this classic, Provençal, incredibly satisfying Gigondas will drink well for 10-12 years. Drink 2023-2034"
