• Ch La Croix des Pins, Le Parpaillon 2015 Gigondas 16.5

60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre. Cask sample.Tasted blind. Light to mid smudgy ruby. Not much nose; just a little sweatiness, and then a hint of lavender on the ripe-fruited palate. Very much a Gigondas, with no shortage of alcohol. Good leathery tannins on the end. 14%
Drink 2019-2026."
