Tasting notes
Another incredibly classic expression of the terroir, the 2022 Gigondas Hominis Fides has a beautiful nose of crushed stone, graphite, loamy earth, and savory red and black fruits. With medium to full-bodied richness, a powerful, layered, inward style, ripe tannins, and one great finish, it's going to need 3-5 years of bottle age to show its full potential yet should be long-lived.

Crafted entirely from Grenache Noir planted on sandy, calcareous soils, the 2022 Gigondas Hominis Fides reveals aromas of violet, dark cherries, lilac and pepper. Full-bodied, concentrated and layered, it's structured with a fleshy core of fruit, framed by a layered, dense mid-palate and controlled power, concluding with a long, mineral and ethereal finish. Matured 30% in new barrels, 30% one-year-old barrels and the rest in two-year-old barrels, the new oak is barely noticeable.
The 2022 Gigondas Hominis Fides is an intricate elixir, bursting with ripe black fruits, blueberries, rose water, dried herbs and a bite of forest strawberry. The full-bodied and firmly structured Hominis Fides retains impressive freshness and boasts stunning verticality on its seamless palate. This is a truly stunning 2022 crafted to stand the test of time.
A dense, well-composed and muscular Gigondas. The nose expresses notes of sweet cherries, dried flowers, grilled herbs, thyme and orange peel. Full-bodied with fine tannins. It’s ample and so precise, with a silky texture at the center. Driven and lively, with a restrained power throughout. Spicy and vivid, with a long finish. From organically grown grapes with Ecocert certification. Try from 2026.
