Origin

Vacqueyras Red is produced in the Vacqueyras appellation, located in the southern Rhône Valley of France. This region is renowned for its robust and expressive red wines.

Variety

The wine is typically a blend dominated by Grenache, complemented by Syrah and Mourvèdre grape varieties, which are traditional to the southern Rhône region.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo traditional fermentation methods with temperature control to preserve aromatic complexity. Aging is carried out in a combination of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels to balance fruit expression with subtle oak influence.

  • Finish: Long and persistent finish with a warm, spicy aftertaste.
