Gigognan Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cardinalice 2020

A sublime wine experience for the discerning connoisseur

Unique terroir and vinification

Gigognan Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cardinalice 2020 is a 100% Grenache wine that originates from the iconic clay-limestone soil layer, covered with rolled pebbles. This unique soil ensures optimal drainage and heat for the vines, giving the grapes excellent ripening.
The wine is produced with great care: the grapes are harvested manually and sorted thoroughly to ensure the highest quality. Fermentation takes place in elegant concrete tulip vats using 10-15% whole bunches. Here, a gentle extraction is used through overpumping and careful stirring, which emphasizes the natural character of the grapes. Fermentation is followed by two weeks of maceration, before the wine is stored for 12 months in foudres and finally 6 months in concrete vats.

Tasting notes

Cardinalice 2020 is a wine that captivates from the first scent. The explosive nose presents:

  • Floral aromas , dominated by the delicate scent of rose.
  • Sweet undertones that add a feminine and seductive elegance to the wine.

In the mouth, the wine is soft and caressing with an astonishing finesse. The long aftertaste offers balanced spices and a subtle structure that make this wine a real pleasure.

A foodie's best friend
