Much more precise as you would expect, the fruit is much more expressive, ripe peach and apricot notes with a great perfumed floral feel but still a lightness of touch, alcohol is showing but I am sure this will settle, maybe a touch light on acidity but this is for drinking now, a real pleasure to drink, has all the hallmarks of Pierre Gaillard, for such a big man he has a real lightness of touch in his whites. L&S (Jan 2019)

Domaine Pierre Gaillard
Pierre Gaillard's passion for wine-making developed at an early age when he was discovered ploughing in the vineyard with a plough horse when only twelve years old. After studying oenology at Montpelier he went on to work for a large estate in Côte Rôtie where he steeped himself in the 'terroirs' and traditions of this famous vineyard. In 1981 he bought his own vines in St Joseph and revived the 'Clos de Cuminaille', an ancient vineyard dating back to Roman times. Since then he has bought vines in both Côte Rôtie and Condrieu.
