Good basic quality like an elevated Cotes du Rhone Villages, and at 15 years, drinking as well as its potential allows.

2012. Nice ripe bramble and plum with earth and spice back notes, good with nice QPR.

Really attractive deep ruby color. On the nose it's perfumed with exotic spices and ripe fruit aromas. Soft; doesn't have the harshness and overt rustic qualities of other vacqueyras, but not persistent either, lacking the opacity, finish, and mouthfeel of modernist rendition.
