What others think of this wine...

Simon Hoggart - The Spectator October 2010 says:

Pascal Frères' Gigondas 1999 marks a rare opportunity to buy a really mature Southern Rhône wine for an exceptional price... This is the closest France comes to antipodean blockbusters, yet it too has that elegance along with the power. If there were a French word for 'bonzer', this would fit it.
