Tasting Notes: Always one of the very best wines from this leading Cru, Les Hauts outperforms again in 2020 with a magnificently refined and elegant yet powerful wine, bursting with delicious red/black fruit character, fabulous length and smooth texture. Very stylish.

Aged in 100% oak casks, around 40% new. | ABV: 14% | Critic Reviews: 'Another beautiful, balanced, medium-to-full bodied Gigondas offering ample fruit (black cherries, blackberries), textbook aromatics of ground herbs and chalky minerality, ripe, silky tannins and a great finish... well worth seeking out.' 94/100 (Jeb DunnockK
'Deep colour. Rich and ripe with jam-compote fruit notes. Lots of gourmand fruit on the palate with a density that follows. Firmly structured, the tannins tight and long on the finish. Needs a bit of time for everything to merge.' 16.5+/20 (James Lawther MW, jancisrobinson.com)
95/100 (Decanter World Wine Awards)
