Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Gigondas appellation with this rare and exquisite cuvee, limited to 1,000 numbered bottles. This wine is a tribute to the legacy of Celine’s grandfather, who planted some of the oldest Syrah vines in Gigondas in 1966.
Only two parcels of his ancient Syrah and two of centenarian Grenache were hand-picked and fermented to create this masterpiece. This cuvee is aged exclusively in vats to preserve the freshness and purity of the fruit and the terroir. It is bottled without fining or filtering, so you can enjoy its authentic character and complexity. This wine will age gracefully for up to 8 years.
Made from a delicious expression of 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah. It seduces you with its enchanting aromas of Provencal herbs, red berries, pepper, and flowers. It delights you with its silky texture, elegant structure, and charming personality.
It is a perfect companion for your festive meals: prime rib of beef with parsley, roasted capon, lamb with Provencal herbs, duck breast, roast pigeon, omelette with porcini mushrooms or truffles, as well as mature hard cheese.
Don’t miss this opportunity to taste a piece of history and a work of art from one of the finest producers in Gigondas.
