The base 2019 Vacqueyras is fabulous stuff and is based on 55% Grenache, 35% Syrah, and the balance Mourvèdre. It comes from more chalky, clay soils and is brought up in tank. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and incredibly sexy, it offers Provençal notes of blueberries, leather, peppery herbs, and violets. With spot-on purity and good balance, it displays a classic, pleasure-bent style that will be a great drink over the coming 7-8 years.
