"All Grenache from old vines, the 2022 Gigondas Clovis Saurel was still maturing in demi-muids when I visited last summer. While some vanilla was still apparent on the nose, adding a sheen of polish to the black cherries and black raspberries, this full-bodied wine comes across as exceptionally balanced and silky. Ripe and richly concentrated yet elegant and silky, with tremendous length on the finish, it's a beauty of a Gigondas."
