Gigondas Vieilles Vignes Magnum (1.5L) 2022 Domaine Saint Damien

Gigondas - Vieilles Vignes 2022 Magnum

南ローヌの厚みを、絹のような口当たりで。

AOPジゴンダス内の下部テラス状の土地に位置する区画から。印象的なブラックチェリーの味わいに、ガリーグや甘草のニュアンスが加わります。フルボディでありながらシルキーな口当たりで、よく熟したタンニンが継ぎ目なく溶け込みます。余韻は長く、豊かな果実味に塩味が寄り添い、ムールヴェードル由来の深みと旨味が残ります。牛肉の赤ワイン煮や鹿肉、仔羊とともに、1.5Lのマグナムで。

Tasting note

The impressive black cherry flavor is complemented by nuances of garrigue and licorice. Full-bodied, silky, and pleasant to the touch. The aftertaste is long, rich in fruit and saltiness, and you can feel the depth and umami of Mourvedre.

Food pairing

It goes great with all kinds of meat dishes, such as beef braised in red wine, venison, and lamb, as well as slightly chilled and grilled fish dishes with fresh herbs.
