Description
Full and rich in black fruit compote and spiced damsons. Powerful and more concentrated than many this year, with similarly high alcohol. Very much a classic expression of Vacqueyras in its muscular tannin and deep concentration. Likely to offer good value.
Drink 2024 - 2029

Critics reviews
70% Grenache Noir, 15% Mourvèdre and 15% Syrah. Hand-harvested. Vinification in enamelled concrete vats. Aged in enamelled concrete or steel tanks. Tank sample.
Tasted blind. Violet and spiced notes on the nose. A richness on the mid palate and firm, vertical tannins throughout. Some sweetness and richness – a relatively simple style.
