Guillaume Gonnet is not your average Rhône winemaker! along with his Australian wife Kelly, Guillaume IS Pursuing biodynamics wherever possible, allowing his fruit to express itself freely through hands-off winemaking and displaying his fascination for the varying soils of the Rhône,
Hand picked 50 to 90 year old vines with large pebble covered soils. Vinified and aged in various types of container. 30% pyramid shaped concrete vats, 30% wooden vats, 30% stainless steel, 10% demi muids (600L) barrels.
This wine doesn't disappoint! Red and black fruit on the nose of cherries and blackberries, a hint of garrigue, liquorice and spice. A fine wine. This wine will open up beautifully if decanted at least 1 hour before serving. It's a very versatile food partner, anything from game, red meats, coq au vin, parma ham, duck and spicy sausage.
