The luxury cuvee, the 2001 Gigondas Cuvee Prestige La Font de Tonin, is a 100% barrel-aged blend of 65% Grenache and 35% Syrah and Mourvedre. Like its sibling, it is bottled with neither fining nor filtration. Its dark ruby color is accompanied by a crushed stone-like aroma intermixed with sweet black cherries, blackberries, and cassis. Notions of espresso suggest new oak was utilized somewhere in this medium-bodied, long, elegant, moderately endowed wine’s upbringing. Drink it over the next 10-12 years.
