Michel Tardieu uses about 80% stems in the vinification of the 2007 Gigondas Vieilles Vignes. This dark ruby/purple-hued effort reminds me of the Gigondas cuvees made by the brilliant Yves Gras. Its deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by notes of raspberries, blueberries, crushed rocks, and flowers. The complex aromatics are followed by a dense, full-bodied wine displaying both power and richness. It should drink well for 8-10 years. This partial look at the Tardieu-Laurent portfolio concentrates on the value-priced offerings from the southern Rhone.

A captivating red, showing fig and hoisin sauce aromas and flavors, with a riveting graphite note. Superlush but defined, with the black tea, licorice snap and perfumy edge of the appellation all lingering through the velvety, lengthy finish. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Drink now through 2019. 500 cases made, 50 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Southern Rh?ne / Gigondas Select to Add
