GIGONDAS Les Hautes Garrigues Domaine Santa Duc 2020
My Christmas wine this year will be the Domaine Santa Duc Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues 2020. It is a bottle I have kept in the cellar for over a year now, since I bought it while waiting for the right occasion. This wine is robust and intense, so a little aging is often beneficial to achieve greater harmony and integration. It is a complex wine made from 50 percent mourvedre and 50 percent grenache from old vines, aged in large casks and clay amphorae, mostly whole-bunch fermented, and biodynamically grown. I tasted it on another occasion last year, and I can imagine how it will have evolved by now. It will pair perfectly with the truffled venison stew I will be cooking for Christmas lunch. Harmony through complexity and a touch of patience. Merry Christmas! Kevin Davy, Tasting Manager James Suckling.com's staff Christmas picks.
