Gigondas Rouge "Tradition" 2022 | Wine from Domaine Gour de Chaulé

The Domaine Gour de Chaulé is a family-owned vineyard founded at the beginning of the 20th century, located in the heart of the Rhône Valley. Spanning 10 hectares, the estate was initially divided between vines and olive trees before focusing exclusively on viticulture. Driven by Rolande in the 1970s, then modernized by Aline in 1985 with sustainable farming, and finally led by Stéphanie Fumoso and her son Paul, the estate has managed to preserve and enrich its expertise.

The Gigondas Rouge "Tradition" 2022 is the very expression of the expertise of Domaine Gour de Chaulé. Composed of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre, this wine is the result of meticulous vinification and mixed aging in concrete vats and old oak barrels. This process gives the wine a supple and powerful structure, a perfect balance between notes of ripe red fruits, gentle spices, and a persistent freshness.

The Gigondas "Tradition" 2022 reveals complex aromas of ripe red fruits like cherry and raspberry, enhanced by hints of spices and nuances of garrigue. On the palate, it offers a ample volume, a silky tannic structure, and a long and refreshing finish.

This Gigondas is the ideal companion for grilled red meats, sauced dishes such as coq au vin or beef bourguignon, as well as roasted game. It also pairs well with aged cheeses for a harmonious tasting experience.
