Château Gigognan Clos du Roi 2016 | Châteauneuf-du-Pape
36.91 €
Château Gigognan stands on the site of a centuries-old monastery in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where vines exceed 100 years of age. The Clos du Roi parcel occupies a large, cohesive block in the appellation's southern and driest sector, where soils are dominated by galets roulés — large, heat-retaining rounded quartzite stones. Certified organic by Ecocert. Consulting winemaker for this vintage: Philippe Cambie.
A blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre. Aged in a combination of stainless steel and seasoned old barrels with no new oak.
Château Gigognan Clos du Roi 2016 es un vino tinto de la denominación de origen Châteauneuf-du-Pape, producido por la bodega Château Gigognan en la región del Ródano, Francia.
La bodega se ubica en un antiguo emplazamiento monacal, donde las viñas superan los cien años de edad. Esta botella proviene específicamente de la parcela Clos du Roi, situada en el sector sur y más seco de la denominación, sobre suelos compuestos por galets roulés de cuarcita blanca. El vino cuenta con certificación ecológica de Ecocert, bajo la consultoría enológica de Philippe Cambie desde 2012. La uva base es un ensamblaje compuesto por 60% de Grenache, 30% de Syrah y 10% de Mourvèdre. La elaboración incluye una crianza en combinación de depósitos de acero inoxidable y barricas usadas, sin aportar roble nuevo.
En cuanto a su perfil y notas de cata, The Wine Advocate (94 puntos) destaca una impresión previa al lanzamiento, señalando notas de frambuesa, ruibarbo y fresa que conducen a un paladar potente, cremoso y con textura, finalizando de forma firme y seca. James Suckling (91 puntos) lo describe como suave, con abundantes notas de frutas rojas, hojaldre cremoso con mermelada de frutos rojos, hierbas mediterráneas y licor de frambuesa. Su estructura en boca revela un núcleo tánico fácil, jugoso e intenso, con gran concentración y longitud, apto para consumo inmediato o para guarda.

PARKER: 94
Even before its release on the market, this Châteauneuf du Pape 2016, which combines Grenache (60%), Syrah (30%) and Mourvèdre (10%), and which had a mixed aging in steel and oak vats of more than one use, it was already showing impressive. The notes of raspberry, rhubarb and strawberry lead us to a powerful, creamy and textured palate, which becomes firm and dry on the finish.
James Suckling: 91
Soft, with abundant notes of red fruits and creamy puff pastry with berry jam, as well as Mediterranean herbs and raspberry liqueur. On the palate it reveals an easy, succulent and intense tannic core, as well as great concentration and length. For immediate consumption or storage.
Learn more about Château Gigognan
The name comes from a Roman legionary, Giglius, who raised a temple here. The temple was destroyed and in the fourteenth century rebuilt as a priory: it was the second residence of the Bishop of Avignon.
Through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the estate prospered enough to be granted the title of village. That former place of worship and the land around it became a fief, and together with Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Bédarrides they formed the principality governed by the archbishops of Avignon. The three names have gone together ever since.
The modern chapter was opened by Anne and Jacques Callet, who bought the Clos du Roi and spent the 1990s restoring the château and building a proper cellar. Jacques died in July 2016 and the property was bought by Jean-François Henin in 2017.
One hundred and ten hectares of vines among hills, umbrella pines and olive trees, with wines in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Signargues, Côtes-du-Rhône Villages and Côtes-du-Rhône. Clos du Roi is their benchmark Châteauneuf.
