« The 2015 Gigondas (95% Grenache and 5% Mourvèdre) is a more medium- bodied, pretty wine that has an approachable feel in its ripe plum and blueberry fruits, violets and peppery herb aromas and flavors. It has ripe, supple tannin and good mid-palate depth, and it should drink nicely right out of the gate. »
