"Inky colored and still a monster of a wine that has a wealth of fruit and texture, the 2007 Gigondas Prestige des Hautes Garrigues is locked and loaded with notions of smoked meats, ripe currants, black raspberries, singed garrigue and chocolate. Still youthful and vibrant, with its oak elevage absolutely covered by a wealth of fruit, it has awesome purity, ripe tannin and a finish that just won't quit. Count yourself lucky if you have any of this in the cellar."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
