Tasting Notes

"The 2016 'La Cigalette' is a wonderful showing which opens to aromas of ripe black raspberries and plums, followed by crushed violets, spices, white pepper and dark chocolate nuances which all begin to take shape as it unwinds in the glass. This possesses a remarkable round, polished texture that ends with a velvety finish that lingers nicely. While this already appealing and will be approachable early on, it will likely begin to show its best stuff after a year to two of cellaring."

The Producer

Domaine de Dionysos

Marseille, 1720 - the Great Plague has invaded the city. The FARJON family fled to the hills of Uchaux, at that point a little colony that would rapidly become the hamlet we know as Uchaux Les Farjon today. For the past seven generations, the FARJON family has been producing incredible wines. This wine is the Rhône Valley embodiment of PHILIPPE CAMBIE’S trademark style. Cambie, consultant winemaker at the property for the past few years, is credited with reviving the wines of the Rhône Valley over the past two decades, and was named WINEMAKER OF THE YEAR by Robert Parker in 2010.
