Grapes: Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre
Domaine Grand Montmirail sits in the heart of Gigondas, beneath the dramatic limestone peaks of the Dentelles de Montmirail. This family-run estate produces traditional Southern Rhône wines that capture the region's Mediterranean warmth and rugged landscape. Gigondas has long been one of our favourite alternatives to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, offering similarly impressive depth and character, often at a much friendlier price.
Les Deux Juliette 2023 is a Grenache-led blend with Syrah and Mourvèdre, grown in the stony vineyards of Gigondas. The area's warm days and cooler mountain influences help develop ripe fruit while preserving freshness. The result is a generous, structured red that combines the richness of the Southern Rhône with the savoury complexity that makes Gigondas so distinctive.
Black cherry, ripe plum and blackberry meet wild thyme, lavender, cracked pepper and a hint of liquorice. The palate is full and satisfying, with dark fruit, firm but rounded tannins and a lovely herbal character through the finish. There's plenty of substance here, making it a natural partner for slow-roasted lamb, grilled steak, duck confit or a hearty Provençal stew. A wonderfully characterful Rhône red, equally suited to Sunday lunch or a few years in the cellar.
