The 1990 Gigondas is even better than the 1989. With deep ruby/purple color, a rich nose of licorice, cassis, herb, and pepper, this long, voluptuous, deep wine is a top-notch Gigondas for drinking over the next decade. Importer: William Deutsch & Sons, Armonk, NY; Tel. (914) 273-1221
The 1990 Gigondas and 1990 Chateauneuf du Pape are the last cuvees bottled of this vintage. Both wines performed better than earlier tastings of these bottled wines.
