Winemaker Stéphanie Fumoso is a strong believer in the grape variety Grenache as the heart and soul of Gigondas.  With holdings in both Gigondas and Vacqueyras, Fumoso's approach is that of minimal intervention in the vineyards and a watchful eye in the cellar is essential to preserving the essence of the appellation. This Grenache dominant wine is intensely aromatic, exhibiting the classic floral and savory elements, famous of this southern French region, complimented by a robe of red fruits & dusty tannins.  This is not your average Côtes-du-Rhône but baby Vacqueyras.  About 2,4000 bottles of this wine are produced a year.
