Yves Gras' Gigondas is likely the most concentrated in the appellation. His old vines (averaging over 50 years old), coupled with a very late harvest, make this possible. Intense, bold, herbal, and wonderfully complex for the region. Only in very exceptional years does the Domaine produce an additional Cuvee des Hautes Garrigues. This Gigondas undoubtedly ranks among the world's best wines: extreme concentration beautifully combines with intense, refined fruit notes. The masses of tannins are perfectly rounded and civilized. The plots for this cuvée are planted with vines over 80 years old, yielding only 15 hectoliters per hectare. Noteworthy is the exceptionally good Côtes du Rhône, the benchmark in this price range.

Domaine André Mathieu's La Centenaire is a red Châteauneuf-du-Pape hailing from a small 1 hectare plot. Here, all 13 varieties are planted with Grenache Noir dominating. The clay-sandy soils in this vineyard help retain moisture during the warm growing season. Wines are vinified with a long maceration to extract all the aromatics and tannins required to build an age-worthy and intense wine. After completing the fermentation, the wines are aged in large neutral oak barrels to soften the tannins and harmonise the wines without imparting oak flavors. The resulting wine is a rich and complex blend with notes of red and dark fruit, spice, and earth.
