Gigondas 2020 Terrasses de Montmirail - Domaine Grand Veneur - Alain Jaume
From the estate
- Terroir: Sector of the "Dentelles de Montmirail", where the landscape is strongly marked by a rocky bar varying from 100 to 600 meters high. The soils are clayey-sandy and limestone. The Dentelles massif has emerged under the influence of the Pyrenees and at the opposite of the Alps. It is a terroir of predilection for the production of powerful and fresh wines. The nights are indeed cooler and the grapes ripen quite late.
- Grape varieties : Black Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre in small proportion.
- Vinification and maturation : Traditional fermentation in stainless steel or concrete thermoregulated tanks, with regular pumping over. Aging in vats (mostly) and in oak barrels. Bottling after 12 to 14 months.
- Tasting : Intense and deep color. Typical Grenache aromas (blackberry, blackcurrant), of undergrowth and spices. A racy and elegant Gigondas with a full-bodied mouth. The finish is long with spicy and mineral notes (crushed rock, graphite).
- Serving suggestions : Ideal between 1 and 7 years. To be decanted if the wine is drunk young. Serve at a temperature of 17°C.
