Domaine Notre Dame des Pallières is an ancient family estate in Gigondas with roots stretching back centuries. Under the stewardship of Claude Roux and now his children Isabelle and Julien, the domaine continues to emphasize low yields (~30 hl/ha), old-vine expression, and terroir fidelity 

 

TASTING NOTES: In the glass, it's a deep purple with brilliant reflections. Aromas blend ripe black cherry, blackberry, spicy garrigue, Provencal herbs, and toasted nut nuances.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: This wine shines with roasted lamb, rich stews, game dishes, herb-accented casseroles, and hearty cheeses. Its savory and fruit-forward profile also pairs well with tagines and spiced roast meats.
