91/100 Wine Spectator

Note de dégustation : "Juteux et frais, avec une boule de cassis et de prune amère en tête, suivie de légères notes de mesquite et de tabac. La finale mûre a une bonne énergie". James Molesworth

Vintage 2016

Drink from 2020-2025

Serving : After 2 hours in a carafe, serve between 16 and 18 °C.

Presentation and tasting: This cuvée is a Vacqueyras nugget. A gourmet wine produced from old Grenache vines. You will notice its spicy side coming from the Syrah, as well as its freshness due to the Mourvèdre. 

A great wine, very powerful with richness. It is elegant on the nose. Its mouth shows a beautiful density, with pulpy flesh. A mineral and straightforward side. It will need a few years in the cellar to release its full potential. 

Serving suggestions: After 2 hours in a carafe, serve between 16 and 18°C.
