| Yves Gras produces ultra-ripe, multi-layered wines from his 22-ha estate in Gigondas and he has been one of the AOC leaders and one of the most consistent for a decade or more. Exchanging ideas with Pascal Verhaeghe (Le Cedre in Cahors) and Luc de Conti (Tour des Gendres in Bergerac), Yves Gras` Grenache-based wines are fruit-driven, long-lived and balanced. ----------------------------------------------------
Dark and alluring blend of Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault showing espresso, mesquite and game notes mixed into the fig, currant and blackberry fruit. Rich, smoky finish has sweet spice and liquorice notes. Shows power, strength and balance. |
