Description
“Terra Rosso” Gigondas 2017 by Jérôme Benoit of Le Mas des Flauzières . New wine to TOB.
100% pure Grenache from 30-year-old vines.
If you’re going to get Gigondas from Jérome it really is worth swinging big, and they don’t come much bigger than this: very lifted and still extremely young-smelling with incredible perfume, cherry jam, chocolate and cloves, leather furniture, old books, mahogany, while the palate is very full bodied, rich and velveteen, but also ripped with some serious tannins, juicy acidity, epic length and savouriness. In its youth this may not be for the faint-hearted but give it some time and it will unfurl magnificently. Rugged red with muscular attitude.
