Notes : Robert Parker 91+/100, Guide Hachette 2**(Outstanding wine)
"A limpid wine with violet tints, smelling of violets, black fruits and pepper, with Mourvèdre adding its characteristic animal note. The palate is full-bodied, dense, silky and suave, with a peppery finish. A Vacqueyras marked by Syrah, with a bright future ahead of it: three to ten years". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)

Don't drink too chilled, and give it time to oxygenate in a full glass. A pure delight for lovers of full-bodied Rhône Valley wines. Plan on a second bottle, as the first doesn't last long...
