Vacqueyras

Medium

Cork

A mix of vines up to 100 years old, grown on blue and yellow clay, provide the fruit for this wine, fermented then aged for 14 months in concrete. It has a curious nose with a distinct herbal element of bay and juniper from the 30% whole-bunch fruit. This is joined on the palate by full, flowing, cool menthol fruits. It's a well balanced wine with firm textural tannins and a saline finish. A sophisticated and self-assured expression of 2017 Vacqueyras.
