Along the same lines stylistically, the 2012 Gigondas Cotes Jugunda will require more patience. The same blend and elevage as the 2011, it is loaded with big black fruits, pepper, earth, graphite and minerality as well as hints of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, structured and tannic, yet with a stacked mid-palate and excellent overall concentration, it should benefit from short-term cellaring and have 12-15 years or longevity.
