Hints of spices and violets. A lovely drinkable young wine with elegant and melting tannins. 80% Grenache – 20% Mourvedre.
Gigondas extends over 1233 hectares. It was classified ‘cru’ in 1971. The main vine varieties are Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre. There are two types of Gigondas wines, red and rose. We only produce red Gigondas wine. We have three vintages which are a blend of mostly Grenache and Mourvedre. It is a selection of our youngest Gigondas vines. We gave it the name ‘La Tour’ because one of the parcels in the locality has this name. Situated in the southern Rhône Valley, our 58 hectare domain with vine classifications in Vacqueyras, Gigondas and Côtes du Rhône has been converted to Bio-Dynamic culture since 1996.
