Domaine Santa Duc, Gigondas 2003 California herbs and minerals1. 5cm 90 points Robert Parker A blend of 75% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre, and the rest Cinsault, the 2003 Gigondas possesses considerable austere tannin, but also loads of muscle, power, and deep, earthy, black cherry and berry fruit. While slightly tough textured, it will age well. This is a vin de garde style that requires 4 5 years of cellaring, and should last 12 14 years. (12 04)
