"The 2005 Gigondas Cuvee Valbelle is brilliant stuff that’s still youthful and lively. Possessing classic Saint Cosme tar, asphalt, licorice and savory black fruits, this beauty flows onto the palate with full-bodied richness, bright acidity and building tannin that comes through more on the finish."

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.
