Displaying notions of toasty oak as well as copious quantities of cassis, black cherries, licorice and incense, the dark ruby/purple-tinged 2009 Gigondas Cuvee Florence exhibits excellent depth, medium to full body and decent acidity. It should keep for 10-12 years. For many decades, this estate owned by Jean-Pierre Cartier has been a reference point for high quality Gigondas. Cartier was among the first producers to experiment with small barrels (for his Cuvee Florence), and he appears to have gotten the equation of oak and the wonderful fruit produced in the southern Rhone correct.Various American importers including: Ansonia Wines, Dover, DE; (no telephone number available) and Gifted Grapes Wines Distribution, New York, NY; tel.
