In a few words ...
A lovely, complex cuvée! Traditional vinification with temperature control to preserve fruit and aromas. Aged 8 to 10 months in vats.
"A subtle, complex nose of spices and undergrowth, with a delicate floral touch (iris, violet). After a lively, even incisive attack, fullness and roundness quickly take over, forming a silky, full-bodied palate of rare harmony, with a warm, sunny finish. A suave, irresistible Gigondas".
Tasting notes
Appearance
A deep, brilliant ruby-red color.
Aroma
The nose reveals a palette of aromas combining very ripe black fruit, licorice, spices and hints of thyme, rosemary or fresh laurel.
Wine Fruity | Spicy | Vegatable
Taste
On the palate, the wine is smooth and harmonious. The finish is long and greedy.

Romain Duvernay
Romain Duvernay is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 30 wines available to purchase, including the wine Gigondas 2016.
Appellation
Gigondas
The appellation Gigondas is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Romain Duvernay and its 30 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
