Domaine Les Pallieres, Gigondas 2006

Red.

Vinturi - clay/earth, red cherry coulis, lifted spice nose. Hazelnut and pepper with air. Refined, subtle, and PFG.

Round and plush, with textural sweetness buffered by spicy stem tannin. Flows evenly start to finish - spicy red fruit, earth. Long, perfumed. Beautiful stuff, nervy, no fat.


$28. Owned by the Brunier family of Vieux Telegraphe in Chateauneuf du Pape and Kermit Lynch.
