"Much more sunny, upfront and sexy than the 2010, the 2009 Gigondas (75% Grenache, 10% Mourvedre and the rest Syrah and Cinsault) offers overflowing notions of herbes de Provence, garrigue, licorice and spice, with a rocking core of kirsch and darker berry fruits. Rich, concentrated, sexy and layered, I don't see it lasting as long as the 2010, but it has another decade of pure drinking pleasure."

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.
