Les Pallières 2016, Terrasse du Diable

Rhone Valley - Gigondas - Red Wine -

Les Pallières 2016, Terrasse du Diable is a great wine of Gidondas vinified on the Domaine des Pallières of the Brunier family who owns Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

This 2016 vintage is a pure marvel from a blend of black grenache 90%, mourvèdre 5%, Clairette 5%.

Tasting Note: In its youth, the vintage "Terrace of the Devil" carries in it the minerality, the freshness and the sometimes too marked tannins of the terroirs of altitude. Beautiful vintages have a potential of more than 20 years.

The dress: Bright purple.
On the nose: fragrant, a ripe cherry and a liquor of red fruits mingle with a smoky shade that develops in the background.
On the palate: Impressive power and depth on the palate, with candied raspberry and cherry flavors, complimented by notes of candied lavender and liquorice. Finely delicately tannic and of an impressive length, offering a solid punch.

The 2016 vintage has been rated 92-94 / 100 by Wine Advocate:

2016 Gigondas Devil's Terrace is an outstanding effort. Fine garrigue shades and piney scents bring depth and complexity to the ripe black cherry and raspberry fruit. Full-bodied, silky, long and elegant, with lingering thyme and savory notes on the finish, it should not be missed.

The 12bouteilles tips : A sublime gigondas all in balance and finesse. A magical vintage with an impressive price-performance ratio
