which abut one another

Full body and rich fruit

They picked all grapes together (there were some unripe grapes) and fermented it all together

I had two vintages of the old-vine cuvée to taste side by side

Moulin Gardette, Gigondas Ventabren Vintage:2017 a touch of liquorice developingI loved the 2017 Gigondas Ventabren and savvy readers should snatch this beauty up! Loads of Asian spices, herbes de Provence, new saddle leather, and sweet red and black fruit all flow to a medium to full bodied, balanced, straight up gorgeous 2017 that does everything right. Tasting like the essence of the south of France, its already drinking beautifully but will keep for over a decade. The blend is 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 10% Cinsault that
