Winemaker Notes
Perrin et Fils Gigondas La Gille is bright ruby red in the glass with notes of cherries, thyme, and blackberries on the nose. On the palate, it is round and full-bodied with elegant tannins and great balance.
93 points Decanter
The Perrins have been investing in vineyards and various other visitor attractions at Gigondas - they mean business. This is good, big wine with concerted juice at its heart: drink it with stews and game dishes.

Deep ruby. Potent, mineral-accented black raspberry, cherry and floral pastille scents show excellent clarity and pick up a bright, spicy quality as the wine opens up. Concentrated yet lively, displaying strong lift and cut to the juicy dark berry and bitter cherry flavors. Clings with excellent tenacity on the floral-dominated finish, which is framed by smooth, even tannins.

Bright violet color. Potent, mineral-tinged red berry and floral aromas pick up notes of garrigue and allspice with air. Rich yet lively Gigonads, with strong lift and thrust to its sweet raspberry and floral pastille flavors. Closes spicy, stony and very long, with gentle tannins coming on late.
90 points The Tasting Panel
Smooth, silky and bright with meaty, earthy, spicy style with lively raspberry and plum; soft tannins and good length. Syrah, Grenache.
