DOMAINE DUCLAUX

CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE WHITE 2015

Yellow robe. Licorne, kiwi fruit, green olives show on the nose, with some oaking. The palate is threaded with oak, and a result has a squeezy gras presence, a white fruit jam style. The finish is on honey, a little sweetness, toffee. I find the oak coats its texture a little too much. Table wine, with sauced dishes OK. Drink 2021-2022.

CHATEAU DU TRIGNON

GIGONDAS 2015

Rating : 90-92

Brilliant violet. Ripe dark berries and pungent flowers on the expansive, spice-accented nose. Juicy and seamless in texture, offering appealingly sweet black raspberry and cherry liqueur flavors that flesh out and take a darker turn with air. Shows a lively mineral note on the gently tannic finish, which leaves a sweet boysenberry note behind.

CHATEAU DU TRIGNON

GIGONDAS 2015

RATING : 90

The 2015 Gigondas shows baking spices and red fruits on the nose, hinting at cherries. It's medium to full-bodied with silky but dry tannins fanning out across the palate, like a dusting of cinnamon and clove. It should drink well for 5-8 years.

CHATEAU DU TRIGNON

RASTEAU 2013

Rating : 90

Bright violet. Fresh red fruits on the fragrant nose, complicated by peppery spices and a floral element. Deep and sweet but energetic, offering juicy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that fan out nicely on the back half. Silky tannins shape a long, pliant finish that leaves behind suave spicecake and lavender pastille notes. Quite graceful in character for a Rasteau and approachable now, in the style of this producer. The 2011 version of this wine is drinking perfectly right now, by the way.

A blend of Grenache and Syrah matured in a mix of tanks and barrels, the 2015 Cotes du Rhone villages Plan de Dieu is a full-bodied wine loaded with scents of brandied cherries and even apricot.

CHATEAU DU TRIGNON

GIGONDAS RED 2013

Rating : 90

Bright-Ruby. Sexy, mineral-accented aromas of ripe red berries, lavender and peppery spices show very good clarity. Silky, seamless raspberry and floral pastille flavors and nicely concentrated and sharply focused, and a hint of smokiness comes up on the black half. At once rich lively, finishing with lengering spiciness and gentle tannic grip.
