This wine immediately draws you in with its captivating bouquet, blending the elegance of white orchard fruits and delicate florals, like the first day of summer in full bloom. A subtle note of acacia honey wraps around a vibrant midpalate, where citrus pith, green pear, and crushed stone combine to create a balance of freshness and finesse. The finish brings a fine leesy texture, beautifully supported by subtle oak and a lively acidity that keeps things crisp and linear. It's approachable now, but its potential really shines with time. A great candidate for cellaring through 2030+.— A.C.
Here's What We Thought:
Rare and elegant, this white Gigondas shows mineral-driven freshness and Southern Rhône soul. Pear, citrus peel, and hints of white blossom and honeysuckle flow across the palate, finishing stony, crisp, and refined. Perfect with grilled seafood, roast chicken, or creamy cheeses—but honestly, it steals the spotlight all on its own. Sophisticated and absolutely unforgettable.
