Le Clos des Cazaux Gigondas La Tour Sarrasine 2016 - First Bottle

Reviews

94 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - Read

Darker and deeper than the estate's Vacqueyras, the 2016 Gigondas La Tour Sarrasine is 70% Grenache, 15% Mourvedre and 15% Syrah. Ripe plum and boysenberry notes lead the way, dressed up by sexy hints of raspberry, leather and baking spices. It's full-bodied and richly textured, with a long, velvety finish. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.

From a bottle in US and showing even better from bottle than barrel, the 2016 Gigondas Tour Sarrasine (70% Grenache and 15% each of Syrah and Mourvedre brought up in tank) offers a spicy, pine forest, pepper, and earthy red and black fruit-driven profile. Medium to full-bodied, rounded, and incredibly sexy and opulent on the palate, it has a wealth of fruit, beautiful purity, and a great finish. It has the relatively approachable style of the vintage yet given its depth and density, it’s going to evolve nicely for 10-12 years.

About the Producer

The oldest part of Domaine des Cazaux dates back to the 12th century and belonged to the Templar Knights. An ancient Moorish Tower sits on the property, the Tower of Sarrasine, for which this wine is named. The estate spreads over 119 acres of vineyard land. The quality of the soil is outstanding and the sun exposure is optimal due to the special location of the vineyard, surrounded by the rocky massif of the "Dentelles de Montmirail". They have a significant amount of older vines with an average age of 45 years.
