Viniou Reviews

E. Guigal's 2020 Gigondas is a French red wine from the Southern Rhône Valley, renowned for its rich, full-bodied wines. This appellation, particularly celebrated for its Grenache-dominant blends, offers robust, spicy, and fruity characteristics. The 2020 vintage benefited from the region’s diverse terroirs, combining alluvial soils and limestone-rich hills, which foster an aromatic complexity and a robust structure. The Rhône Valley's Mediterranean climate ensures ample sunshine, ideal for ripening grapes fully. E. Guigal, a venerable estate known since 1946, boasts a reputation for crafting wines that balance tradition with precision, ensuring each bottle reflects both its heritage and the unique terroir of the region.

For pairings, this Gigondas harmonises beautifully with rich dishes. Consider serving it alongside roasted lamb with herbs, a classic coq au vin, or a hearty beef stew. These dishes bring out the wine's intricate spice notes and fruitiness. Alternatively, a Provençal dish like ratatouille would complement the rustic character of Gigondas, allowing both the dish and the wine to shine in a complementary tandem.

For optimal enjoyment, serve this Gigondas at around 16-18°C. Decanting is advisable for about an hour before serving to allow the aromas to open fully. Begin the tasting by observing the wine's deep ruby hue, then proceed to swirl the glass gently, releasing its bouquet that hints at dark berries, garrigue, and subtle pepper. On the palate, experience the wine’s full body, with its well-knit tannins and a lingering finish.
