All Mourvèdre brought up in old demi-muids, the 2018 Gigondas Le Plateau is a stunning example of this variety that does everything right. Classic Mourvèdre notes of blueberries, mulberries, new leather, lavender, and ground pepper give way to a full-bodied, beautifully balanced, elegant 2018 that has stacked mid-palate, flawless balance, silky tannins, and a great finish. It shows more tannins and structure with time in the glass, so give this beauty 2-3 years of bottle age, it should have 15-20 years of overall longevity.Inc. TAX€335.99 -
Wine Spectator (96)
This shows a prominent leather-wrapped and cassis-soaked rosemary flavor profile, while bitter cherry and plum fruit notes make a bid for attention. The finish is paved with warm stone and smoldering garrigue accents, along with a long, lingering tobacco edge. A Bandol-esque version of Gigondas. Mourvèdre, Syrah, Cinsault, Grenache and Clairette. Best from 2025 through 2040.Inc. TAX€479.99 -
Vinous (93-95)
Opaque ruby. Displays deeply perfumed black and blue fruit aromas with suggestions of smoked meat, succulent flowers and baking spices. Shows excellent depth and energy to its juicy cherry, blueberry, licorice and bitter chocolate flavors, which are sharpened by a spicy suggestion of black pepper. Firmly gripping tannins frame a very long, spicy finish that echoes the cherry and floral notes.Inc. TAX€344.14 -

Always not destemmed, the 2022 Gigondas Le Plateau just about jumps out of the glass with its spice, wild, floral and exotic Mourvèdre character. Red, blue, and black fruits, game, peppery garrigue, and violet notes all give way to a medium to full-bodied, broad, layered, structured 2022 that, while it largely offers pleasure, has two decades of prime drinking.Inc. TAX€343.19 -

Based on 50% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, and the rest Syrah, the tiny production 2022 Gigondas Le Regard Loin is gorgeous, and I think it’s the standout in the lineup. Black raspberries, ground pepper, sappy flowers, and spice are just some of its nuances, and it's just about perfect on the palate, with full-bodied richness, a round, layered mouthfeel, and ultra-fine tannins. I love it today, but this beauty will cruise for two decades.Inc. TAX€196.75 -

Glass-staining ruby. Deeply pitched black raspberry, cherry-cola, cassis, olive and pungent floral qualities on the intensely perfumed, mineral- and spice-accented nose. Sappy and densely packed yet energetic as well, offering intense, smoke-laced kirsch, dark berry preserve, mocha, licorice and candied violet flavors and a hint of salty olive tapenade. Shows superb clarity, repeating floral and spice notes and emphatic mineral lift on a youthfully tannic finish that hangs on with superb, dark fruit-driven persistence. These vines are all Serine, originally from Domaine J.L. Chave, of Hermitage fame.Inc. TAX€423.29 -

Inky violet color. Assertive aromas of ripe blackberry, kirsch and violet pick up olive, licorice and exotic spice nuances with air. Juicy, broad and deeply concentrated, this wine displays an array of floral-tinged black and blue fruit and spice flavors that become more lively as the wine opens up. Smoothly melds richness and vivacity, and the wonderfully long, spice- and mineral-accented finish features velvety tannins and resonating florality.Inc. TAX€427.03 -
Wine Advocate (95-97)
There's no doubt that this cuvée is among the very best Syrahs bottled in the Southern Rhône. The 2018 Gigondas les Routes (from a vintage that favored Grenache) is perfumed and floral, with prominent violet notes joining hints of potpourri, garrigue and licorice. Blueberries and mint appear on the full-bodied palate, which delivers concentrated fruit flavors without any sense of excess weight, finishing long, lively and silky.Inc. TAX€351.59 -

Finishes very long and youthfully chewy, with mounting tannins and repeating cherry and bacon notes.Inc. TAX€427.03 -

The 2022 Gigondas Les Routes is another Hermitage look-alike with its leather, gamey blue fruits, fig leaf, and graphite aromas and flavors. Richly textured and medium to full-bodied on the palate, it's a rich, concentrated, yet also weightless Syrah that has so much to love.Inc. TAX€341.99 -

The original blended Domaine des Bosquets Gigondas is now available in two cuvées: Font des Bosquets (young vines, shorter ageing, no oak) and Réserve (older vines, 14 plots vinified separately including fruit from the top single vineyard sites, maturation in different types of oak for 18 months depending on the variety). The result is an extraordinary exercise in elegance, beautifully silky tannins and deeply vinous fruit. This is long, shapely and tapered with depth, freshness, elegance, and a seamless character. If the alcohol was marginally better integrated this would possible score higher. It's quite an expressive, almost showy wine, but it will be excellent when it's ready. Not as strongly characterful as each of the single vineyard expressions, but better balanced, and more quintessentially Gigondas. In organic conversion.Inc. TAX€241.19 -
Decanter (95)
A full-bodied, harmonious blend, not quite as aggressively concentrated as his single-vineyard wines this year. Very tannic still, and well balanced despite its enormous size. Long finish, saturated with thick, fine tannins. The oak is quite prominent for now, but there's enough fruit to match it. Will be good when it's ready. 70% destemmed, then vinified plot-by-plot. The Syrah is aged in recent-use (but not new) barriques, the Mourvèdre in old barriques and the Grenache in larger barrels (mostly old) and concrete. Then the wine spends six months in concrete tanks after blending.Inc. TAX€220.79 -

Brilliant ruby. Black raspberry, cherry and blueberry aromas are complemented by lavender and cracked pepper suggestions.

The traditional cuvée from this talented winemaker, the 2022 Gigondas Réserve is a blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and the rest Mourvèdre and Cinsault. It has a gorgeous perfume of black raspberries, toasted spices, dried flowers, and camphor, with a touch of loamy earth and minerality that emerges with time in the glass. Medium to full-bodied, it has the riper profile of the vintage, fine tannins, terrific overall balance, and outstanding length. It's a rich yet also elegant barrel sample.Inc. TAX€265.19 -

The 2013 Beaune Grèves comes across as a bit compact and not as expressive as the other wines in the range. There is good depth and energy in the glass, along with expressive inflections of dark-fleshed fruit. A relatively high amount of CO2 masks some of the wine's personality today.In Bond€92.00 -

True to its vintage, the 2022 Les Poyeux offers massive concentration. This is an impressive style with the structure for longevity. It is silken and round with plenty of chalky, fine-grained tannins that coat the palate. The fruit is appetizing with black and red cherry flavors, plus there's lovely refreshment on the finish. It could be approached with food starting in 2026, but this will be delectable with more bottle age. The 2022 underwent 28 days of maceration and maturation in amphora and barrel.In Bond€122.00 -
