90 WA. "I love the roughly 400-case 2014 Vacqueyras la Cuvee and it’s certainly a success in the vintage. Made from 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah that was mostly destemmed and aged in concrete tanks and second fill barrels. It offers a fabulous bouquet of sandalwood, dried Provencal herbs, garrigue and ripe black raspberry fruit. It has a kiss of barrique, but more than enough fruit to handle it. Drink this medium to full-bodied, beautifully textured Vacqueyras anytime . . ." Wine Advocate #228, Dec 2016 |
