2020 Domaine Saint Damien Gigondas Vieilles Vignes

"Looking at the Gigondas releases, the 2020 Gigondas Vieilles Vignes doesn't give anything to the two single vineyard releases and offers awesome aromatics, full-bodied richness, a round, lush, yet pure mouthfeel, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. It's loaded with Provençal, garrigue, and peppery goodness, and it's going to be a brilliant value. This cuvée is an 80/20 split of Grenache and Mourvèdre raised all in foudre." - Jeb Dunnuck Review Date: January 2022
