The 2023 Gigondas Blanc from Domaine Saint Damien offers up aromas of spices, oak, walnuts and camphor, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and crystalline texture framed by bright, delicate acids and a spicy, clove finish. Too oaky for my tastes, this is a well-executed Gigondas Blanc.

The first white from this estate, the 2023 Gigondas Blanc has a kiss of reduction as well as rock-solid aromatics of candied lemon zest, minty flowers, and honeysuckle. It's a medium-bodied, pure, elegant white that will benefit from 6-12 months of bottle age and should evolve nicely over the following 2-4 years.

A creamy buttery note on the nose with almond kernel and white flowers. The palate has freshness, lively acidity and a salty note on the ripe finish. Crackling acidity lifts this wine.
