Description
Explore the singular charm of Domaine des Bosquets Gigondas Lieu Dit, a red wine hailing from the Rhone Valley in France. This exclusive offering captures the essence of a dedicated parcel planted to old-vine Grenache on sandy terrain, facing north and northwest while nestled at 210 meters amid enveloping forests. Such conditions foster a deliberate pace of maturation and modest harvests, yielding around 16hl/ha, which infuses every sip with concentrated character.
Picture uncorking a bottle that reveals a vivid ruby-purple hue, inviting you into a bouquet brimming with vitality. Delicate scents of small red berries mingle with morello cherry, ripe cherry, subtle licorice sweetness, plum, and hints of kirsch, creating an aromatic allure that's both lively and intriguing. On the palate, it unfolds with remarkable poise—tannins of exceptional refinement and a surge of freshness that echo the sandy origins, delivering the true spirit of its birthplace.
Crafted entirely from Grenache and elevated by 97 points from Jeb Dunnuck, this wine stands out for its graceful full-bodied presence. It dances with flavors of ripe strawberry and cherry, accented by dried flowers, spice, and loamy earth. Ultra-fine tannins glide seamlessly, free of any roughness, leading to a lingering close that promises enjoyment over many years. Wine Spectator awards it 95 points, praising its approachable openness and deep focus on ripe cherry, warm red licorice, cassis touched with vanilla. Grenache purity shines through, balanced by character, poise, dried herbs, crisp acidity, and polished tannins that ensure a vibrant, extended finish.
At 15% ABV and bottled in 750 ml sizes, this six-bottle set offers an ideal way to stock your cellar or share with fellow enthusiasts. Whether savoring solo on a quiet evening or pairing with robust dishes, Domaine des Bosquets Gigondas Lieu Dit delivers finesse and depth that distinguish it among Rhone Valley reds. Secure your case and elevate everyday moments into something memorable.
