Gigondas Prestige des Hautes Garrigues 2007 Santa Duc Selections

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (97)

An absolutely exquisite, profound effort is the densely purple-colored 2007 Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues Cuvee Prestige. The incredible aromatic expression of lead pencil shavings intermixed with blueberry and blackberry as well as ripe raspberries, crushed rock, and floral undertones is to die for. In the mouth, the wine is exceptionally full-bodied, fresh and vibrant, yet possesses awesome concentration, a multi-layered mouthfeel, and a finish that goes on for 45+ seconds. This is an incredible effort from Yves Gras that should drink well for at least 20 years. (I say that because I still have some of the 1989 Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues in my personal cellar, and it is in fabulous shape.)

Full and round and full-on turbo charged stuff ? almost essence of Gigondas. Certainly very dry on the finish. But lots of richness too. Perfect for an igloo!
