Vintages Wine Panel: Arguably, after Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas produces the best wines in the southern Rhône – this wine makes a strong case for that notion. Featuring aromas of cocoa, plum, blackberry, garrigue and strawberry, this dry, rich, full, and complex wine is expertly balanced and displays a long finish. Cellar it 3-5+ years. This wine won Gold at the 2007 Foire aux vins d’Orange, one of the Rhône’s oldest wine competitions. My note: One for the cellar, for sure! This wine has a towering structure, balance and length. It will age beautifully. Rich depths of black fruit, smoke and dark spices. Bring it on!

Syrah Blend food pairings: roast leg of lamb with rosemary and garlic, grilled salmon, roast chicken with gravy.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
