Some of the Grenache in this Gigondas comes from pre-phylloxera vines — ungrafted survivors in the appellation's sandy parcels, where the louse never got a grip. La Gille is 90% Grenache with 10% Syrah, grown on northwest-facing hillsides below the Dentelles de Montmirail, an exposure that preserves acidity in an appellation that can easily bake, over limestone, chalky marl, clay and safres (the crumbly local sandstone). Grapes are hand-sorted and punched down by hand through a long maceration to soften the tannins, and the blend spends a year in wooden foudres and conical vats. 2023 was a stop-start growing season in the Southern Rhône, with a wet spring and a run of hail and drought, but the fruit came in phenolically ripe and the wine landed silky rather than heavy. Give it an hour in a decanter; it's good now, better in three to five years, and it will hold for a decade.

"Crafted from equal parts estate-grown and purchased fruit, the 2023 Gigondas La Gille reveals a gourmand, subtly reductive bouquet of spices, dark wild berries and garrigue. Medium- to full-bodied, juicy and sappy, it’s precise and layered with velvety tannins that carry through to a long, penetrating finish. This is a stunning blend of 90% Grenache Noir and 10% Syrah." —Yohan Castaing
