🌟 A singular Gigondas—sensual, structured, and profoundly expressive of place.

👁 In the Glass:
Opaque ruby with flashes of deep purple—concentrated and alluring.

👃 On the Nose:
Intense and focused. Aromas of wild blueberry, black cherry, and dried violets are layered with hints of garrigue, cocoa, and cracked pepper.

👅 On the Palate:
Lush and finely detailed. A wave of blue and black fruits unfolds on the midpalate with striking purity and grip. Griotte cherry, mocha, and stony freshness extend into a persistent, elegant finish.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Exquisite with rosemary lamb, duck with cherries, mushroom ragù, or aged Comté. A wine that brings out the best in hearty, flavourful cuisine.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Beautifully drinkable now with decanting, but will evolve gracefully for 10–15 years, developing further depth and savoury complexity.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Clos des Tourelles is a jewel of Gigondas—Grenache at its most graceful, with clarity, length, and a profound sense of place. A wine of pedigree and poise that lingers in both memory and glass.
