Domaine Santa Duc Gigondas 'Les Hautes Garrigues' 2021
$156.00
Description
92-94 Points Robert Parker Wine Advocate "A 50-50 blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre, Santa Duc's 2021 Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues is a terrific wine, starting with its complex scents of garrigue and crushed stone, then moving through the ripe fruit notes of purple raspberries, black cherries and plums and into the rich, creamy-textured palate. This medium to full-bodied effort is densely concentrated, with a long, gently tannic finish. Drink 2023-2033"
"The wines that come from these parcels are profound and serious, with spicy, liquorice notes and chewy tannins which give them extraordinary cellaring capacity." - Domaine Santa Duc
