Reviews

91/100
"A complex red with impressive depth, showing supple cherry and fleshy plum flavors encased in iron. Gains intrigue from crushed herbs and bright anise accents. Beautifully approachable now, thanks to the silky tannins, yet this is built to go the distance."
90/100
"Bright violet color. There are lush black and blue fruits on the deeply scented nose. [...] it's not lacking energy in its jammy boysenberry and cherry-cola flavors. Closes warm and smooth, with lingering spiciness and gentle tanninc grip. "
90/100
"A blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, the 2020 Gigondas Le Pas De Montmirail shines for its up-front aromatics and complexity. Red and black fruits, spice, garrigue, and peppery nuances all emerge from this medium-bodied, supple, elegant Gigondas that's perfect for drinking through 2030."
