Rich and delicious, this wine has a smooth palate, and its generous and velvety tannic structure unfolds a beautiful balance between a mastered maturity and its final on a spicy point. |

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! |
|
|
| |
|
Built upon a beautiful maturity of Grenache grapes (80%), with that fruit that expresses itself like a black fruit coulis, the 2021 Red Vacqueyras Lopy is a wine made from old vines like few others in the area. Warm notes of spice, plum, thyme, and dried herbs melt into a full-bodied palate with body and consistency. It is a generous wine, quite tannic, with a complex palette, carried by smooth tannins and a beautiful sap that stretches the finish. A powerful and generous wine to be aged further. |
|
|
| |
|
Hand harvested, low yield (18hl/ha). Traditional vinification in concrete tanks, the grapes are entirely destemmed. Aged for 12 months in 450 liter tuns.
Certified Organic (Ecocert) and Biodynamic wine. |
