Gigondas Terre Des Aînés CHAMPAGNE The Marín rangeWe called this wine Terre des Anes because the big parcel of 10 hectares was always handed down to the first of each new generation for the last 5 generations. A lovely deep dark red wine. On the nose, it has hints of liquorice, violets and black fruits. In the mouth, it is both delicate and powerful. Tannins with a noble texture. The aromas found on the nose are also discovered in the mouth. 80% Grenache 20% Mourvedre
