Domaine du Cayron, Gigondas 2021 Domaine des Chambris generous and firm

generous and firm

and velvety with a balanced freshness and a salty and persistent finish

thanks to a slow-moving bouquet characterized by redcurrant and tart cherry

so there no overt 'oakiness' on either nose or palate

The Estate Chardonnay is a barrel selection from across the Platt vineyard and shows the fresher side of the two inaugural Chardonnays

Domaine du Cayron, Gigondas 2021 Domaine des Chambris generous and firmDarkly coloured. Lovely sense of freshness, florality and herbal detail. Fairly full and rounded, quite mature already. Mouthfilling, sweet ripe fruit and a long finish. Has a slight, agreeable usticity to the texture and feels authentically Gigondas. Unpolished. No destemming, aged in foudres and demi muids. 93 Pts Decanter
