Château Gigognan stands on the site of a centuries-old monastery in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, its Clos du Roi parcel occupying a large, cohesive block in the appellation's southern and driest sector, where soils are dominated by the classic galets roulés — large, heat-retaining rounded stones. The estate's vines exceed 100 years of age, farming has been certified organic since 2009, and consulting winemaker Philippe Cambie has guided both vineyard and cellar decisions since 2012.
The 2016 is 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 influence. The wine opens on dried cherries and blackberries with notes of loamy soil and cured meats, framed by a rounded, supple structure, moderate tannins, and good length — earning 91 points from Jeb Dunnuck, who described it as a "ripe, sexy wine."

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.
