Gigondas 2022
The terroirs of Gigondas form a truly unique geological ensemble. The vineyard nestles within the natural jewel of the Dentelles de Montmirail. Limestone, omnipresent throughout the appellation, is the unifying element of its soils. Its microclimate combines the heat of summer with the force of the Mistral wind.
