Château De La Gardine, Gigondas Brunel De La Gardine 2021
Gigondas sits in the shadow of the Dentelles de Montmirail and has long been Châteauneuf's rougher, more mountain-edged cousin. The Brunel de la Gardine is Château de la Gardine's Gigondas expression, and it wears that rocky, sun-scorched character honestly. Grenache forms the backbone, with Syrah and Mourvèdre adding structure and a streak of something wilder. The 2021 vintage gave the southern Rhône cooler nights and a longer growing season than usual, which shows: there's freshness here that the appellation doesn't always manage.
Valdivieso Caballo Loco Grand Cru Apalta 2023
Great intensity of ripe plum, blackberry and damson with a hint of pepper spice. The fruit flavours and oak are beautifully integrated with smooth tannins and a firm structure.
