Awards: Guide Hachette Selection, IWC Red Winemaker of the Year 2009
Black Grenache dominates the blend of the Gigondas Duc de Montfort, lending it finesse and smoothness. Syrah complements this, adding structure, complexity, and intense color. An expressive wine, featuring ripe plum and cherry fruit with chocolate and peppery notes, and a powerful palate of candied fruit with licorice undertones. A must-have from Skalli!
