Packed with ripe red and black berry fruit flavours and stronger savoury notes. Intense and mouthfilling blackcurrant, cassis and some spice flavours with excellent fruit concentration. Succulent and delicious, with soft, grainy tannins. Lovely length with a lingering peppery note. ¿Cayron¿ hit a home run with their 2007 Gigondas (a blend of 70% Grenache, 15% Cinsault, 14% Syrah, and 1% Mourvedre). I have been tasting (and often buying) this Gigondas since 1979, and it tends to be a wine that repays patience. The 2007 offers a smorgasbord of Provencal aromas, including lavender, ground pepper, incense, Provencal herbs, and black cherries. Full-bodied, earthy, even animalistic, it will be somewhat controversial because of its abundant spice and meatiness. Nevertheless, this stunningly concentrated effort is the finest wine Domaine du Cayron has produced in many years. It should drink well for a decade.¿ 89-92 Robert Parker Robert Parker
