Score 93/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jan 2006

Saturated deep violet color. Intensely spicy and fragrant, with high-pitched, vivid aromas of raw berries, cherry and licorice. This is 15.6% alcohol but there's no suggestion of heat or excess weight. In fact, this is brisk and fruit-driven, with tangy blackberry, cassis and bitter cherry flavors. Brilliantly focused, pure, minerally finish offers superb energy and lift.

The elegant, medium-bodied 2003 Gigondas La Font de Tonin reveals more sweetness, flavor depth, and structure than the Cuvee Traditionelle, along with notes of flowers, crushed stones, raspberries, and cherries. It should be consumed during its first 5-8 years of life. Importers: David Hinkle, North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 848-8910; Michael Skurnik, Syosset NY; tel.
