Description
Archeological evidence dates Roman viticulture in Vacqueyras to 2nd century BC. Vacqueyras appears in many records of the 1400s, and taxation documents in 1448 make specific reference to the wines and harvest. Noted for their balance of power and elegance, the wines of Vacqueyras achieved Cru status in 1990.
Tasting Notes
(60% grenache and 40% syrah): Dark ruby. Sexy dark berry liqueur, mocha and floral scents are lifted by a note of white pepper. Plush and open-knit, offering gently sweet blackberry and blueberry flavors that provide impressive palate coverage. Spreads out nicely on the finish, which is framed by smooth, slow-building tannins. This suave wine is delicious right now but has the depth to age. Score - 91. (Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar, Jan./Feb. 2014)
