Note di degustazione
Brilliant ruby. Spice-accented red and dark berry preserve, floral and smoky mineral qualities on the expressive nose; a hint of succulent herbs emerges with air. Shows very good depth as well as energy to the sweet black raspberry, cherry and licorice flavors, which deepen steadily through the midpalate. Supple tannins build slowly on a long, spicy finish that leaves cassis and cracked pepper notes behind. Raised in concrete vats.

The 2017 Vacqueyras Garrigues is always a Grenache-dominated blend that includes 30% Syrah. All destemmed and aged in concrete tanks, it offers a clean, lively bouquet of black cherries, blackberries, garrigue, and earthy, herbal notes. It’s clean, nicely textured, medium-bodied, and balanced.
70% Grenache, 30% Syrah. Cask sample. Tasted blind. Sour, slightly oxidative fruit. Simple, basic, not in great condition. (RH)
The medium to full-bodied 2017 Vacqueyras Garrigues looks a step behind the 2016, being more open-knit in texture, with plenty of berry fruit that finishes crisp, zesty and clean.
