Description

Two bottles from the excellent 2006 vintage of this Grenache-based Gigondas..
Considered by many to be the benchmark producer in the appellation, Cayron produces a Gigondas (cepage = roughly 70% Grenache; 15% each Syrah and Cinsault and a drop of Mourvèdre for color) of phenomenal richness and incredible longevity. Their vines are on average 40+ years old with parcels up to 70 years old. You’d be hard-pressed to find a more terroir-expressive wine anywhere in the Southern Rhone; bold, explosive, stunningly evocative garrigues flavors careen from the glass, blaring their stamp of origin like a neon sign. These are old-styled, powerful wines of enormous fruit amplitude and irresistible personality. Furthermore, Cayron is among the most age-worthy of Gigondas, delicious upon release, but improving for well over a decade and holding strong for a long time thereafter. This 15-hectare domaine, run by the Faraud family, is a classic and truly top-flight estate.

“Deep, saturated ruby. Exotically perfumed nose shows potent raspberry, apricot, garrigue and rose scents. Lush and creamy, with sweet red fruit liqueur flavor, medium weight and strikingly silky tannins. Picks up suave minerality on the long, sappy finish. Offers outstanding potential. 92-95” Stephen Tanzer.
