Domaine Les Pallieres Gigondas 2005
Wine Advocate The 2005 Les Pallieres Gigondas has a slightly darker ruby/purple color than the 2004. Moreover, it also has a big, sweet nose of cherry fruit intermixed with truffle, crushed rock, spring flowers, and spice box. It is medium to full-bodied and comes across as a hypothetical blend of a Medoc from Bordeaux and a Pinot Noir from Burgundy. These wines are aged in one- and two-year-old foudres, and the 2005 was cropped at 25 hectoliters per hectare. Give it 2-3 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 15-17 years. (88-91) Score: 91. —Robert Parker, February 2007. International Wine Cellar Dark red. Fresh raspberry and strawberry aromas lifted by a striking floral element. Brisk, dry and focused, with fresh red fruit flavors nicely framed by fine, silky tannins. Finishes brisk and impressively long. Score: 90-93. —Josh Raynolds, January 2007.
