Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas 2020 (France)
Dozen Price: $1127.88
RRP: $95.00
Expertly produced by the prestigious Gigondas domaine Raspail Ay, the 2020 vintage features vines with an average age of 40 years, resulting in a harmonious blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre. Bursting with lively and fruit-forward flavours, this exceptional wine from the Southern Rhone region offers a distinct and refined tasting experience with great potential for ageing.
"The 2020 Gigondas is stunningly good and is loaded with notions of red cherries, framboise, sappy flowers, and pepper. These all carry to a medium to full-bodied, flawlessly balanced Gigondas offering ripe, perfectly integrated tannins, a layered, balanced mouthfeel, and a great finish. If I saw this on a wine shelf, I'd buy it. Drink bottles any time over the coming 15 years or so"

Winery & Vintage Info
Dominique Ay, the knowledgeable owner of Domaine Raspail-Ay, produces one of the most renowned wines in the Gigondas region. The estate's 19 hectares form a continuous plot of vines on a rugged terrain of clay and limestone, known for its exceptional terroir. The impressive Dentelles de Montmirail mountain range provides a striking backdrop.
Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas is traditional in every sense: a classic blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre; fermentation in concrete tanks, and maturation in large oak foudres. The focus is solely on one wine - Gigondas - with no other labels such as Côtes du Rhône, "Réserve", "Vieilles Vignes", or special cuvée aged in new oak. This single wine consistently ranks among the top in the appellation year after year.
