Simply a Côtes du Rhône, but a very interesting one. Nice red cherry color. A nice nose, full of concentrated red berries, bay leaves, black pepper, light blue fruits, and some mineral earth. In mouth, nice concentration, ripe sunny tannins, lots of them, sunny dry earth with crushed sligtly sweet dark red berries, jerky meat and blueberries. With that light alcohol (14.5%) black pepper medium long finish. Very nice, robust, and quite a nice body. Excellent and clearly from the Gigondas terroir. Tn: 89-90.

P.s. I can't believe we won't have any Rhône wines in SF, but c'est la vie!
