Famillie Perrin La Gille Gigondas 2010 0,75l
La Gille Gigondas from Famille Perrin is sourced from terraced vineyards on sandy soils where Grenache and Syrah gain particular finesse. The bouquet is complex, with ripe plum and cherry, garrigue herbs, black pepper and a touch of cardamom. On the palate the wine is full-bodied and dense, yet velvety, with well-integrated tannins and juicy acidity. Flavours of dark berries, spiced brioche, liquorice and subtle smoke add depth. The structure is powerful but balanced, leading to a long, spicy, fruit-driven finish. La Gille pairs beautifully with lamb, slow-cooked beef, game dishes or mature cheeses.
Ageing in large wooden vessels and barriques gives the southern Rhône fruit spice, roundness and structure.
