About The Wine
A good classic from the southern part of the Rhone Valley known for the dominant Grenache varietal. Beautifully defined aromas of ripe berries and dried Provençal herbs. Soft, juicy and easy upfront, the palate unfolds elegantly with notes of fresh tobacco, red berries and underbrush. The finish goes on and on.
About Chateau Gigognan
Situated at the heart of the Rhône Valley, close to the famous papal city of Avignon, Château Gigognan encompasses vines in a landscape of rolling hills, parasol pines, olive trees and pebbles.
The wines are made, aged and bottled on site. Gigognanharvests low yields and places special emphasis on each individual vineyard and the specific grape varieties grown there.
The soil ranges from sand and limestoneto the rocky soils studded with galets so common in Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
Quality and environmental responsibility are the driving forces behind the estate, which sees each vine managed with respect and in line with the natural rhythms of the terroir.
The vineyard is worked with thoroughness and precision on a daily basis, as shown, for example, by the cereals grown between the rows of vines to offer them a protective cover of vegetation.
