2016 Gigondas “Terrasse du Diable”

Domaine Les Pallières
Discount Eligible $40.00
SOLD OUT

Terrasse du Diable relays its rocky environment with shameless audacity. Perched above the rest of the domaine on crunchy limestone rubble, it brings a chewy touch of rusticity and a saline finale.

Anthony Lynch

Terroirs

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
