François-Xavier Nicolas Gigondas Le Secret des Dentelles 2019
Descripción
Este tinto procede de un terruño emblemático del sur del valle del Ródano, enclavado en el corazón de la cordillera de Dentelles de Montmirail. La especial composición de los suelos y el microclima que disfruta le confiere de una gran finura y una buena acidez, no exenta de potencia revestida de aromas a garriga, frutos rojos y negros, y unos taninos suaves y sedosos.

Hints of bay leaf and rosemary mark the nose of the 2019 Gigondas Le Secret des Dentelles, a Grenache-heavy blend (about 70%). The resinous herbs accent redcurrant and black cherry flavors on the medium to full-bodied palate. A bit firm and tannic, this looks to have up to a decade of cellaring potential. - Joe Cwerwinski.
A good-looking barrel sample, the 2019 Gigondas Le Secret Des Dentelles reveals a deeper purple/ruby color as well as a beautiful nose of black raspberries and wild strawberry fruits intermixed with lots candied violets, ground black pepper, and a distinct sense of minerality. Medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated, and structured on the palate, it’s going to benefit from short term cellaring and should have 10-15 years of longevity.
Full-bodied, packed full of fruit, and plenty of puppy fat. Sweet fruit on the finish, it's very ripe but not overripe. A little touch of jamminess, but it's succulent and adds richness and sucrosité to the wine. Good length of finish. Very amiable wine, for those that enjoy a subtly sweeter style.
