Famille Perrin - Les Crus
Perrin & fils Gigondas
Presentation
The vines grow on limestone, calcareous marl and sandy soils, giving the Grenache immense finesse and elegance with unique aromas.
Ageing
The whole harvest is destemmed. Vinification in wooden truncated casks and stainless steel tanks. Ageing in Foudres and barriques.
The vintage
2008 was quite a cool vintage that we qualify as “Northern” style. The wine is elegant and has a lot of finesse but maintains its Southern flesh.
