A beautifully vivid ruby colour. The delicate nose of this wine is typical of Gigondas with aromas of pepper, liquorice and violet. On the palate, it offers a silky texture, soft and delicate tannins and intense notes of raspberry and blackberry.

One of the most historical vineyards in the appellation, the vines for the Gigondas `La Gille` are planted on limestone, calcareous marl and sandy soils, which each impart a unique aromatic character and finesse in the wines. The vines face northwest, on terraces that benefit from a flow of cold air that blows through the valley to the west of the village. This results in the wine's remarkable freshness. Some of the older plots are over 100 years old and are planted with pre-phylloxera vines, resulting in lower yields of intensely concentrated berries.

The Famille Perrin wines are classic examples of the villages of the Southern Rhône and the consistent winemaking of the Perrin family. The combination of vibrant fruit and a strong expression of sense of place underlines the value these wines offer.
