An inviting, pretty wine, with high-toned violet and ripe raspberry notes that are both fresh and ripe on the palate. Delivers dusty mineral, singed mesquite and invigorating white pepper accents that add good savory dimension throughout the elegant finish. Grenache and Syrah.

Ripe and suave in feel, with a caressing edge to a mix of crushed plum, cassis and cherry preserve flavors as they glide through. Light mineral and black tea notes add range through the finish, which is sneaky long, leaving a mouthwatering feel. Latent depth too, so worth letting this develop in the cellar. Best from 2021 through 2035. 7,800 cases made, 1,200 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Southern Rh?ne / Gigondas Select to Add

The 2018 Gigondas Romane Machotte—an 80-20 blend of Grenache and Syrah, aged in a combination of foudres and barriques—is perfumed and seductive, with hints of violets, roses, herbal tea and dried cherries on the nose. The palate is silky but structured, with some slightly astringent tannins that carry through to the lingering finish, but they're nothing that can't be tamed by some rare beef or lamb, or another year in the cellar. This has turned out even better than I projected from barrel.

Mulled raspberry, damson plum and black cherry fruit flavors are stitched with garrigue, savory and anise notes. A tarry backdrop on the finish pulls everything together. On the old-school side and solidly done. Best from 2022 through 2032. 7,000 cases made, 1,100 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Southern Rh?ne / Gigondas Select to Add
