Famille Perrin L’Argnée Gigondas 2020

Another gem, the 2020 Gigondas L’Argnée Vieilles Vignes comes from sandy soils and very old vines, and compared to the 2019, this saw a touch more whole clusters in the fermenters. Blueberries, wild strawberries, pepper, spice, and sandalwood are just some of the nuances, and this puppy is full-bodied, with a seamless texture, ripe tannins, and a great, great finish. [Drink through 2032+.] Score – 95-97. (jebdunnuck.com, Nov. 3, 2021)
