Gigondas, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceRetasted this spring and developing as expected. The 2013 crop was small but quality at the top end was fine. Deeply coloured, the 2013 Domaine Grand is a 65/20/15 mix of grenache, mourvèdre and syrah grown close to 500 metres above sea level. The nose is pepper, savoury, smoky affair with bits of chocolate, all of which move to the palate with ease. More garrigue with meaty, black cherry notes carry right through the finish. Well-made and youthful, and will age gracefully for a decade. Anything off the barbecue or with mushrooms will work for now. Great cellar buy.Tasted: 03 April 2017Tasted by: Prices:
