2007 Gigondas “Les Racines” HALF-BOTTLE
Domaine Les PallièresThis 2007 marks the first year Pallières separated its fruit into two cuvées, isolating very distinct terroirs in this beautiful corner of the southern Rhône. Les Racines features the domaine’s oldest vines in sloping clay soils, and always delivers rich cherry fruit, notes of violets and lavender, and more elegant tannins than the punchier “Terrasse” bottling. Deep and expansive on the palate, it demands flavorsome roasts, stews, or a pristine cut of dry-aged beef over coals.
