Rating: Robert Parker 90–92/100
“Those seeking the flamboyance of the Southern Rhône need look no further than the 2009 Vacqueyras, made from ripe Grenache, Cinsault, and Syrah. Offering aromas of black fruit mingled with notes of flowers, camphor, and undergrowth, this is a full-bodied, rich, and velvety wine to be enjoyed over the next ten years.” (Wine Advocate Oct. 2011 - Robert Parker)
