Gigondas "Les Grames" 2023 - Domaine des Espiers
Gigondas "Les Grames" is the most refined expression of Domaine des Espiers. Philippe Cartoux crafts a masterpiece from old-vine Grenache (70%) and Syrah, farmed on exceptional limestone marl soils. Beneath a dark ruby robe, it reveals an intense nose of black cherry, fresh fig, black pepper, and scents of the garrigue (thyme, rosemary). On the palate, "Les Grammes" asserts an aristocratic structure: a dense, fleshy texture is carried by velvety tannins and a mineral freshness that lengthens the finish. Masterful aging, without new oak, preserves the absolute purity of the fruit and the wild character of the terroir. A profound, elegant Gigondas built for memorable aging.

The Balance Between Strength and Finesse The Les Grammes cuvée is the result of drastic sorting and a commitment to letting the Gigondas terroir express itself with maximum transparency.
-
Les Grames Terroir: The limestone marl soils provide the wine with its "vertical" structure. Despite the Southern heat, this terroir helps maintain a natural acidity vital for the wine's balance.
-
Vines with Character: Old vines provide a natural concentration and aromatic complexity not found in younger plants. Yields are kept very low to ensure the juice's density.
-
Signature Winemaking: No technological gimmicks. Philippe Cartoux favors gentle extractions to avoid hardening the wine, and aging in concrete vats to protect the crystalline brilliance of the black Grenache.
