Strong and vibrant Taurus inspires this sensual Vacqueyras. Poor soils, minuscule yields of old vine Grenache and about 180 days a year of Mistral bring forth the quintessence of our Mediterranean terroir of garrigue with its spices, sage and juniper.
Tasting Notes: It exhibits opulent hints of dark berries, garrigues, kamut pepper and bay leaves, the mouth is full bodied with already silky tannins and a long finish offering a bouquet of dark fruits, garrigues and all spices.
Vineyard: Exclusively from the “Plateau des Garrigues” where the soil is a combination of rolled pebbles and red clay. Very old Grenache (85%) and 35 year old Syrah (15%) make up the varietal blend.
Aging: Although this wine could be enjoyed young, it will only develop its full character much later. It will keep its freshness for at least 15 years after bottling.
