2021 Gigondas “Terrasse du Diable”

Domaine Les Pallières
Discount Eligible $52.00
AT CART MAX

The hint of prunes and smoke and the rustic, chalky tannins here put the more pastoral feel of the Pallières ambiance on display. Violets and dark berries dominate the palate, with a pleasant wild side lurking below the surface.

Where the newsletter started

Every three or four months I would send my clients a cheaply made list of my inventory, but it began to dawn on me that business did not pick up afterwards. It occurred to me that my clientele might not know what Château Grillet is, either. One month in 1974 I had an especially esoteric collection of wines arriving, so I decided to put a short explanation about each wine into my price list, to try and let my clients know what to expect when they uncorked a bottle. The day after I mailed that brochure, people showed up at the shop, and that is how these little propaganda pieces for fine wine were born.—Kermit Lynch
