Go for good or great Gigondas

Gigondas is a small appellation in the southern Rhône valley that has almost become a little bit forgotten. For a while it has perhaps not been among the most dynamic of wine regions but more recently it has seen something you could almost call a renaissance. Today there are several interesting producers in Gigondas. Raspail-Ay is probably the best known but there are many others. If you are curious to find out a bit more about them (plus a few truths about the 2003 vintage) you should read Mark Williamson’s (Willi’s Wine Bar) commentary here
