Tasting note:

A blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre and 15% Syrah grapes from 50- year-old vines. This is almost as big as an Amarone. I’m not sure it’ll keep longer than five more years given the fruit seems to be receding to the background. My motto: why wait?

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Dark kirsch liqueur, black raspberries, cassis, herbs, and sweet earth. Classic Gigondas, this doesn't have the stuffing for a decade, but can drink for the next couple years. Great purity. 92 points. (ottawawinejournal.com)
