The 2010 Lavau Gigondas is really pretty right out of the gate, with fresh blackberry, dark plum, mineral, lavender, there's even some beef tartar, spice and licorice mixed in. This brings a gorgeous silky, yet supple texture staying fresh and clean straight through the long juicy finish. 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah, and 10% Mourvedre. (Best 2012-2018) - July, 2012 (JD)
