"Le jury est tombé sous le charme d'un nez intense aux franches notes de cerise, de garrigue et de sous-bois. Il a loué l'attaque douce puis la rondeur un peu moelleuse d'une bouche friande de fruit et d'épices, nantie de tanins fins, d'une harmonie parfaite. Puissant et très maîtrisé, ce beau gigondas ira loin."

Domaine Tourbillon
Domaine Tourbillon is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 3 wines available to purchase, including the wine Gigondas - Vieilles Vignes 2016.
Appellation
Gigondas
The appellation Gigondas is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Tourbillon and its 3 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..
