Gigondas Rose Saint Damien
Vintage: | 2023 |

Description: | Domaine Saint-Damien has been producing some of the regions most elegant wines for years, but for some reason they rarely get the attention they deserve. Pricing here is also admirably fair, which makes this an address to be reckoned with for savvy Rhne wine lovers. The Saurel family, which has been farming here since 1821, now owns just over 12 hectares of vines in Gigondas, most of them quite old and cropped low, and the wines are aged in large, traditional concrete vats and old foudres and usually bottled on the young side to preserve freshness, as Romain Saurel said. Saurels father, Jol, is largely responsible for the domaines current (insider) fame and was also the one who brought its vineyards up to Agriculture Biologique certification in 2012. These wines are now consistently delivering some of the southern Rhnes greatest values in high-end wine. Vinous Media, February 2020 |
