Wine Advocate
Reviewed October 2016The 2014 Gigondas les Racines is truly gorgeous, and a serious wine in a difficult vintage for the appellation. From yields of 25 hectoliters per hectare, it has beautiful notes of black cherries, blackberries, hints of pepper and bouquet garni in a medium-bodied, ultra-fine, ultra-pure style. It’s a hidden little gem that will keep for a decade. (JD)

Vinous
Vivid ruby. Aromas of cherry pit, blackberry and pungent flowers are lifted by a smoky mineral element. Juicy and focused in the mouth, offering bitter cherry and licorice flavors that take a sweeter turn on the back half. The long, energetic finish features dusty tannins and resonating mineral and cherry pit qualities. (JR)

Wine Spectator
Stylish, with incense notes guiding a core of supple blood orange compote and plum sauce flavors. A light singed alder note gives the finish spine. (JL)
