Order wines : Azalaïs 2024 Vacqueyras - Le Sang des Cailloux
From the estate Domaine le Sang des Cailloux
92/100 James Suckling
Tasted by J.S. on April 23, 2023 : "If you find it hard to imagine wines from the Southern Rhône smelling of Mediterranean herbs, you need to taste this striking Vacqueyras. It marries herbal character with body, crisp tannins and zesty freshness. The dry tannins are quite pronounced on the finish. A blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and the rest a mix of Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Carignan. Made from biodynamically-grown grapes. For drinking or cellaring. "
