LE SECRET A.O.P. Gigondas

MEANING OF THE NAME

Le secret comes from a steep place where the marl is pink and where vines are filled of brooms and pine aromas. A beautiful place where olive trees keep bouquets of thym and rosemarie. A place where living is good; it carries the smell and flavors of Provence. This secret is ours, it is the quintessence of our Gigondas wines. Its rarity is the key of its success.

CHARACTERISCTICS

FEATURES

The grape berries are full of sunlight and emit aromas of Mediterranean flavors that spread out around small hillsides. Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah of the wine mature half of the time in half-muids of oak from French forests (Nièvre, Allier and Vosges).

STRUCTURE

EXPERIENCE

Explosive round nose with subtle chocolate, cacao and box of tobacco flavors ;

Very mature dark fruits perfumes with fruit jelly aromas ;

Mediteranean flavors and licorice aromas.

SUGGESTIONS

Once, we combined Le Secret with an italian truffled tomme cheese « Moliterno » and the result was explosive !
