Chateau du Trignon Gigondas 2016

Product description

Gigondas offers a rich bouquet, with fine, fruity and spicy aromas and a sunny color ranging from ruby to dark garnet. The nose reveals a bouquet of red fruits and very ripe black fruits. On the palate, the Gigondas is full-bodied with a fleshy attack. The Grenache Noir releases all the expression of its power in this shimmering red wine with marked tannins, a structured body and a great aptitude for aging. Syrah and Mourvèdre reinforce their garnet color and spice up their aromas.

92 Points - James Suckling

Welcome to Black Fruits Central! However, time has moved this in a surprisingly crisp and gentle direction for this appellation, which is associated with weight and opulence. Lovely freshness at the elegantly maturing finish. Almost no perceptible alcohol, in spite of the fact it’s got 14.5%. This is an impressive achievement.
