Domaine les Pallières Les Racines Gigondas 2021
The Domaine les Pallières Les Racines is a powerfully rich and deeply comforting Southern Rhône red wine that serves as a brilliant introduction to the celebrated village of Gigondas. Crafted predominantly from the Grenache grape along, this bold red relies on very old vines that naturally produce fewer grapes, packing an incredible amount of concentrated flavour into every bottle. In the glass, it is wonderfully dark and inviting. Expect an immediate rush of ripe blackberry and plump dark cherry, perfectly mixed with the savoury scent of warm baking spices, roasted herbs, and a touch of liquorice. Despite its powerful fruit flavours, it feels beautifully smooth and soft to drink, avoiding any harsh or mouth-drying grip. It is the ultimate comfort wine for a cold evening, pairing effortlessly with a classic Sunday roast beef, a hearty shepherd's pie, or a simple plate of mature cheddar cheese.
