Rasteau ‘Ilex’, Domaine Saint Gayan

£19.50

Warming Rasteau, a great alternative to Gigondas or Châteauneuf!

The 34 hectare Domaine Saint Gayan holds 12 hectares in the Meffre family’s home village of Gigondas and is now run largely by Julie Meffre and her husband Christian Yves Carré de Lusançay. The Meffres have been vignerons at Gigondas since the 17th Century and have played a key role in the success of the appellation. Roger Meffre (Julie’s grandfather) was president of the Syndicat des Vignerons de Gigondas and was instrumental in winning Appellation Contrôllée status for Gigondas.

This blend of Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre and Syrah, from vines averaging 35 years old, out-punches many a Châteauneuf-du-Pape and is the perfect wine for a chilly winter’s day. Bold and fruit-packed, with notes of black cherry, chocolate and warming tannins.
