This is a collectible, grand Vacqueyras that can rival Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape.<\/p>\n
The grape composition is 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah, sourced from about 4 hectares of vineyards with soils ranging from clay-limestone to poorer, more stony ground\u2014a diversity that contributes to the complexity of the finished wine.<\/p>\n
Vinification combines traditional and modern methods, with 100% destemming of the grapes, hydraulic pressing, and a long, cool maceration and fermentation, followed by aging in large foudres (4,000\u20136,000 liters), after which the wine is bottled by ‘gef\u00fchl’ (instinct) before it reaches its first year.<\/p>\n
This is a deeply colored, dense, and powerful wine with rich fruit and noticeable yet softened, mature tannins. The aroma and taste feature notes of olive tapenade, rosemary, dark berries, and a hint of black pepper, with a vibrant dark fruit flavor. The finish is impressively long and showcases a juicy intensity.<\/p>\n
If enjoyed young, a few hours of decanting is recommended. Domaine Saint-Pierre Vacqueyras is best enjoyed slightly below room temperature\u2014at 16\u201317\u00b0C.<\/p>\n
Young wines pair well with large Bordeaux glasses, while a mature version would likely benefit from a larger Burgundy glass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
