Juicy red and black berry fruit spills from the glass, laced with crushed herbs, spice and a subtle floral lift, giving this Gigondas both charm and drive. Domaine Saint-Damien’s 2022 La Louisiane feels supple and polished on the palate, with fine, rounded tannins and a long, gently spiced finish that shows real class for the vintage.
Lamb shoulder with Provençal herbs; Duck breast with cherry glaze; Grilled Mediterranean vegetable and sausage ragù

La Louisiane is Domaine Saint‑Damien’s single‑lieu‑dit Gigondas from lower terraced, red clay/alluvial soils—an old‑vine parcel dominated by Grenache (with Mourvèdre, Cinsault and a little Syrah) that the Saurel family ferments in large concrete and ages in big foudres. The wine delivers a classic, medium‑to‑full‑bodied Gigondas profile of black cherry and kirsch, floral violet and garrigue herbs with peppery spice, silky tannins and the structure to age comfortably for a decade or more.
