Alain Jaume & Fils Vacqueyras Grande Garrique 2013

Vacqueyras is located right next to Gigondas AOC.  It mostly streches on Sarrians territory, where the famous clay and rock plateaux named “Les Garrigues” is located. The wines itself, made from Grenache, Syrah, old Cinsault and Mourvèdre, evokes the spices and dried herbs of Provence…you will taste the “Garrigue” in your glass.

Deep, intense hue. Aromas of fresh black fruit a little meaty, with dried herbs smells. On the palate, the richness of the tannins harmonizes with the smoothness of the wine. The finish is long, with spice and licorice. A typical wine from this specific terroir called “Les Garrigues”.

Aged with care, this wine is drinking beautifully now.
