Robert Parker

"Crafted in a modern style, the 2010 Vacqueyras Tour-aux-Cailles, with its deep purple color, is one of the greatest wines of the vintage. A 50-50 blend of Grenache and Syrah aged entirely in concrete tanks, it offers abundant notes of blackberry, undergrowth, and floral aromas, as well as sensational concentration, a top-notch texture, moderate tannins, and a massive finish.” (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)

About the wine:

Crafted in a modern style, the 2010 Vacqueyras La Tour-aux-Cailles, with its deep purple color, is one of the finest wines of the vintage. A 50/50 blend of Grenache and Syrah aged entirely in concrete tanks, it offers abundant notes of blackberry, undergrowth, and floral aromas, as well as sensational concentration, a superb texture, moderate tannins, and a massive finish. After 2 to 3 years of cellaring, it will age gracefully for over a decade.

Review by Mr. VINCENT B. Published on September 7, 2014

A well-balanced, concentrated Vacqueyras with a lovely finish that I enjoyed with a wonderful braised veal dish with candied lemon. Don’t hesitate to open it 1 or 2 hours ahead of time and give it a taste. Personally, I don’t decant it.
