Gigondas from the Dentelles – Old School & Outstanding

By now we’re sure you’re very familiar with the wines of Pasquiers. A MacArthur Beverages direct import, this family-run domaine is based in the beautiful village of Sablet. Their Sablet and Plan de Dieu are consistently among our best-selling reds in the shop and never fail to deliver.

What you may not know is that the owners, the Lambert brothers, now joined by the next generation—also farm a special parcel in Gigondas. Located on the steep slopes behind the village near the famous Dentelles (a dramatic rock formation that resembles a row of teeth), this outstanding Gigondas shows the hallmark Pasquiers style: pure fruit, no new oak, old-school winemaking, and impeccable balance.

One whiff and you’re transported straight to the South of France. Not a bad place to be!

At this price, it’s an excellent value for a Gigondas of this quality—and production is quite small. When it’s gone, it’s gone.
