Wow, brought this wine back from the Gigondas wine shop. A lovely place with samples of most estates. Thought the Bouissiere was nice enough to bring home in luggage. And what a good investment that was! Excellent at 25 years of age. Yum!

Garnet color. Delicious nose of red fruits and smoke. Very fragrant with sensible tannins. Perfectly mature and still very fresh! No hurry in drinking these but no upside potential. 93

Full bodied, rich, sweet, very much Grenache, very much 1998, the balance, acidity and minerality is very fine. Mature. Tasted over two days, best on day two. #Peter&Rune

Sweet, carressing Grenache, plenty of primary fruit, garrigue, local character and a very good balance. No hard edges, just pure fun. This is a point, right now, will keep, but it is a wonderful example of mature Gigondas-wine #with PB in the garden

Really singing tonight. Elegance of a Burgundy-wine (okay, just nearly), spine & spiciness, loads of fruit but served in a restrained and civilized manner, what's not to like here? A classic example of, what Gigondas can be - and should be. Will keep the remaining two bottles for library-purposes, but this is really peaking right now. With H&A, Roskilde.
