The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A Vacqueyras prodigy, driven by the dexterity of Serge and Frédéri Férigoule, the Sang des Cailloux estate has a magnificent terroir on a plateau of rolled pebbles. The estate produces biodynamic wines that require time to fully reveal themselves and are very structured and rich, with a high level of maturity. But eventually, what a reward!
Wine A sure value of the Southern Rhône Valley, the 2021 white Vacqueyras Un Sang Blanc is a ripe white wine with a long profile, full-bodied and well supported by the good fatness and structure provided by the maturation in 450-liter barrels. The notes of white and yellow fruits and the tasty and ripe palate compose a white wine that lacks neither freshness nor balance. This wine deserves to be discovered.
Vinification Hand harvested, low yield (20hl/ha). Traditional vinification. Aged for 12 months in 450 liter barrels.

Certified Organic (Ecocert) and Biodynamic wine.
