This Gigondas from Famille Perrin’s Domaine du Clos des Tourelles is expected to offer a complex and powerful aromatic profile. On the nose, look for ripe red and black fruits such as cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, intertwined with classic Southern Rhône garrigue notes of thyme, rosemary, and lavender. Hints of black pepper, licorice, and a developing leather or forest floor character may also emerge. The palate will be full-bodied and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit balanced by firm yet fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity. Flavors will echo the nose, presenting a medley of dark berries, dried herbs, exotic spices, and a stony minerality. The finish is typically long and persistent, leaving lingering fruit, spice, and savory notes.
