Tasting Note
It is here, at an altitude of 400 m, close, as the eagle flies, to the cliffs of Le Pas de l'Aigle and Romane, that our terroir expresses all its complexity. The old vines of Grenache and Syrah have for more than half a century faithfully conveyed the majesty of this place and in this exceptional terroir, where each vine produces less than one bottle of wine. The nose is intense and complex with jammy notes of plum and fig. The palate is silky yet full-bodied with delicate red fruit mingling with intense and powerful flavours of jammy black fruit with a hint of laurel, developing spicy and peppery notes on a wonderful lingering finish.
What does this wine tast like?
Pierre Amadieu
This highly regarded winery was founded in 1929 by the current owner’s grandfather, who made wines from his 7 hectares of vineyards in Gigondas. One of the firsts to print the name of the appellation on his bottles, he also obtained in 1932 a gold medal in the National Agricultural Concours of Paris. Generations on, the present Pierre Amadieu - owner and winemaker is not a follower of over-extracted wines; instead he strives to obtain well-balanced wines with all the elegance and the richness of his protected terroir located on the heights of the appellation Gigondas.
