Domaine Saint-Damien Gigondas La Louisiane 2019

Critical Acclaim: 97 pts Jeb Dunnuck; 96 pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. 

Tasting Notes: "I think the standout of the three Gigondas is the 2019 Gigondas La Louisiane. This ripe, exotic, yet incredibly pure Gigondas offers incredible character and depth with no sensation of weight or heaviness. Wild strawberries, blueberries, mint, peppery herbs, and garrigue are just some of the nuances, and it has silky tannins and a full-bodied, powerful style that will evolve for 10-15 years."- Jeb Dunnuck. 

"Loaded with black cherries and mixed berries, it's a big, full-bodied effort that drinks surprisingly well already yet has the concentration, length and structure that should enable it to age another 15 years or more."- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. 

Varietal: 80% Grenache, 15% Mourvedre and 5% Syrah and Cinsault.
