Domaine du Sang des Cailloux
Serge Férigoule worked, expressed and refined his philosophy on his terroir. In 1991, the Domaine du Sang des Cailloux opted for seasonal and plot-specific tillage rather than chemical weeding. This enables us to control the growth of natural grasses. In a similar spirit, compost made from grape marc and cow manure has been substituted for synthetic fertilizers. Throughout the year, the vines are carefully monitored: tying up, disbudding and removing fallen grapes when production is too high. To get the best out of the fruit, only one bunch per bearer is left on the white grape varieties and on the Mourvèdres. The vines of the Domaine du Sang des Cailloux are thinned out according to plot and weather conditions. During manual harvesting, the vines are systematically and rigorously sorted. The construction of the new winery in 2001 enabled us to refine the work carried out in the vines all year round, thanks to a battery of vats of varying volumes.

Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Floureto 2022
4.3/5 (7 reviews)
90-92/100 Vinous
-
91/100 Decanter
"Vibrant and sexy, Vacqueyras Cuvée Floureto 2022 dazzles with aromas of violets, black cherry, black plum, garrigue and white pepper. It is made from early-harvested Grenache and Syrah grapes, with small touches of Mourvèdre and Cinsaut, all aged for ten months in old oak foudres. Very soft tannins frame this medium-bodied 2022, with the nervous tension characteristic of winemaker Frédéric Férigoule. The finish is refreshing" (Vinous 2023)

91/100 James Suckling
2021 is the year of Azalaïs (each year, this cuvée is named after one of the winemaker's three sisters)! A deep, dark-colored Vacqueyras that reveals a rich, powerful, ripe aromatic palette, with notes of plum, blueberry, spice and hints of fig. A very well-balanced, intense red, with good tannins and good substance, with a long, pleasant finish. A Vacqueyras like we love them!
Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Doucinello 2020

91/100 RVF
A pure delight for this very Mediterranean cuvée, 70% Grenache, complemented by Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault. The nose is racy, with aromas of spices and cocoa over a framework of ripe fruit. The palate is silky and balanced. As for the generous, round finish, it lingers for a long time. A sure bet!
Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Lopy 2019
4.5/5 (4 reviews)
93/100 RVF
This cuvée is based on a majority of old Grenache, selected from the estate's oldest vines and produced in small quantities. Excellent ripeness and low production yield a concentration of aromas centered on stewed black fruits. On the palate, this wine is dense and deeply textured. The finish lingers on notes of cocoa, leather and spices. Don't miss it!

Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Lopy Vieilles Vignes 2010
4.4/5 (17 reviews)
Notes : Robert Parker 90-93/100, Bettane & Desseauve 16/20
"The 2010 Vacqueyras Cuvée de Lopy is the star of the estate, made from the same blend as the 2009. Its dense purple color is accompanied by a big, sweet kiss of licorice, camphor, garrigue, viandé and smoky notes, blackberries and raspberries; full-bodied and luscious, this cuvee is ideal for drinking over the next decade." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Un Sang Blanc 2011
5/5 (3 reviews)
A new vintage, the 2010 was rated: Gault Millau 17/20, Bettane & Desseauve 15/20,
"The highly confidential white is a hymn to the great wines of the south". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France - RVF) The blend of six grape varieties that make up this white cuvée undeniably gives it a special aromatic dimension, blending aromas of apricot and vine peach with hints of garrigue. Powerful yet well-structured and well-balanced, this wine is ideal with Mediterranean cuisine!
Le Sang des Cailloux - Vacqueyras Azalaïs 2009
4/5 (3 reviews)
Notes : Robert Parker 89/100, Bettane & Desseauve 15,5/20, RVF 14,5/20
"Perfectly vinified, without any heaviness or over-extraction in a hot and often rather complicated year. Fresh red fruit on the nose that returns on the palate with lovely freshness and perfect balance". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France 2012)
