2019 Gigondas, Domaine des Bosquets, Rhône

Gigondas has been feted for its high-quality wines since Roman times, although it wasn’t really until it was classified as a Côtes du Rhône Villages in 1966 that it began to realise its potential. It achieved AC status in 1971 and today produces some of the finest, most underrated and under-priced wines in the Rhône valley; although, for the last two of these at least, probably not for much longer.
