Notes:

Moving to the releases in barrel, the 2012 Gigondas (60% Grenache and the balance mostly Mourvedre, with some Syrah) has plenty of potential, with juicy black raspberry, sweet spice, licorice and toasty notes as well as medium to full-bodied richness and depth on the palate. Nicely balanced, it shows the purity of the vintage, as well as a relatively approachable style that should allow it to drink nicely on release.

Inky ruby.  Powerful, deeply pitched aromas of black and blue fruits, garrigue and licorice, with a spicy topnote.  Densely packed and chewy in texture, offering smoky cassis and cherry flavors that coat the palate.  Closes sweet and long, with lingering smokiness and smooth tannins.
