Tasting notes
The nose has great finesse. Pink grapefruit and white floral notes reveal this wine’s very rich mineral quality. On the palate, the wine is ample and balanced around sensations of freshness and delicacy. It is bursting with fresh fruits such as red berries and citrus. The long, pleasant finish expresses the finesse and flavor of a wild strawberry sorbet.
Estate
Château La Gordonne is a unique property in Provence, covering a contiguous area with some 330 hectares of vineyard planted on an exceptional, seaward-facing Amphitheatre of shale which enjoys a special microclimate. Its winters are not harsh and the summers are hot and dry, sometimes scorching, which means that the vines can soak up all the essance of the Provençal sun, with 3000 hours of sunshine a year. The Mistral, a dry, violent wind, plays a major role as it sweeps across the plantations, protecting the vines from damp-related diseases.
The vines are grown on a limestone and clay plain and on the shale slopes. The soil has little humus and is permeable, shallow, stony and well-drained, bringing together the ideal conditions for the vines to flourish. A wide range of typical Provence grape varieties are grown on our estate – we cultivate Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah grapes. Château La Gordonne, today one of the leading estates of Vranken Estates, now boasts new high-performance wine-producing facilities with its champenois style pneumatic presses.
Wine Enthusiast: 88 Points
Citrus and orange zest give this wine a crisp freshness. They back up the red-berry fruits and give the wine freshness. Drink now.
