Jeb Dunnuck (97)The finest vintage to date, the 2015 Gigondas Le Clos des Tourelles comes from a tiny vineyard located just inside the village of Gigondas. Incorporating a touch of Syrah, this Grenache dominated beauty reveals a deep ruby/purple color as well as off the chart notes of black raspberries, black cherries, pepper, garrigue, and tons of that classic Gigondas spice. I wrote “Wow” more than once in my notes and this full-bodied 2015 has ultra-fine tannin, perfect balance, and a stacked mid-palate. Give bottles 2-3 years and drink over the following 15+ years. |

Wine Advocate (96-98)Even better than I remember it being last year, and potentially edging out the L'Argnée this vintage, the 2017 Gigondas Clos des Tourelles is just flat-out terrific juice. From yields around 15 hectoliters per hectare, it's 80% Grenache and 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, all aged in foudre. Soaring floral notes of rose petals, violets and garrigue appear on the nose, followed by ripe raspberry flavors that flow almost weightlessly across the silky, full-bodied palate. So fine, so elegant, so long, it nearly left me speechless. |

Vinous (93)Brilliant ruby-red. Powerful, smoke-accented black raspberry, cherry liqueur and lavender scents are complicated by a spicy white pepper nuance that emerges with air. It's chewy and sharply focused on the palate and displays sappy red and blue fruit, star anise and bitter chocolate flavors with an energizing spike of smoky minerality. Finishes firm and long with polished tannins and a lingering cherry pit note. |
