Gigondas and Cotes du Rhone
Domaine le Mas des Collines makes a traditional, old-fashioned Gigondas. This is not a style for everyone, but for some it is the only “true” Gigondas style. This domaine is our personal favorite (we’ve lived in the Mas des Collines itself) and has been featured at the Rowe Inn for many years.
Gigondas rouge : Gigondas Champion Red Wine and Best Buy. 95 rating. The Wine Enthusiast and Beverage Tasting Institute Annual French Wine Competition. “Leather, tar and black cherry nuances define a fragrant bouquet which leads to a full-bodied and supple mouthfeel. Solidly structured with earthy black fruit flavors that go on and on.” It has been elsewhere described as a “sensational expression replete with woodsy elements, tobacco, exotic spices, and black fruits. Still growing, it is destined to be a classic of the appellation.”
Cotes du Rhone rouge. This is a “wine bursting with black cherry and herb-spice aroma, a richly textured wine of long, telling aftertaste.”
