The description: Domaine du Cayron Gigondas is a traditional, full-bodied French red wine from the Southern Rhône Valley, known for its rich blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault grapes. Produced by the Faraud family for five generations, it features intense dark fruit, spice, and earthy notes, with a velvety texture and long, savoury finish.

The opinion: Delicious. Needs a good stew or steak. — 19 days ago

The description: Fleur d’Eglantine gets its name from its acidulous freshness and its luminous colour, reminiscent of the petals of the wild roses that surround our vinyards. It’s a delicate rosé, airy and acidic, which unites floral aromas and crunchy red berries. Grape Grenache mixed with Mourvèdre and a dash of Syrah

The opinion: Brilliant value for this depth of flavour. I am off to buy a case of….no more said!

The description: Wonderful loganberry aroma on the nose, or deeply intense raspberry and black cherry, after which exotic spice and freesia scents become apparent. Beautifully fresh and expressive in the mouth; medium-bodied and rounded with present but understated tannin and acidity. This is so delicious that it will inevitably be consumed straight away...but should you forget about few bottles, they will age beautifully for at least another 5-6 years.


The opinion: It’s fine but did not meet expectations. — 2 months ago

9.0

The description: A deep blackcurrant-red colour, with bright cherry highlights. A profusion of black fruit flavours and soft spices on the nose. A rich full-bodied palate, sustained by freshness and a certain mineral touch. A silky, velvety tannic finish to enhance the balance.
A wine for early drinking but can be cellared for 2 to 3 years.

The opinion: it’s very good. Well worth investing in a couple of bottles to drink over the next couple of years. — 10 months ago

9.1

The description: This wine showcases a deep garnet color with purplish highlights. The initial aromas are complex, and after a brief aeration, it reveals scents of stewed small black fruits and candied cherries. We notice a pleasant acidity on the palate balanced by well-presented and structured tannins. This wine delivers notes of black fruits and toasty flavors on the finish. Complex and well-balanced, the finish is long and lingering.

The opinion: Beautiful! Enjoy. — 5 months ago

The description: "Flavours of garrigue, black cherry, blackberry, ground herbs and crushed-rock-like minerality. It has a traditional feel, yet does not lack for purity, balance or polish either." Wine Advocate 93/100

The opinion: actually brilliant value (125 per bottle) I have tasted much worst at a lot more. This is brilliant! I am going to buy a couple more bottles — 10 months ago
