Description
// Biodynamic 80% Grenache, 20% Syrah
From Piedmont sand with the presence of mica originating from volcanic rock in the heart of the Alps and a small proportion of clay at Les Aubes. Aged 18 months in 36-hectoliter oak Stockinger foudres, and 8-hectoliter terracotta amphorae.
"The 2022 Vacqueyras Les Aubes spent one year in a combination of Austrian oak foudres and terracotta amphorae. Vinified from certified biodynamic grapes with 75% whole clusters, it shines with pronounced red cherry and raspberry aromas, licorice and a pinch of white pepper. The medium-bodied palate showcases excellent tension, sculpting this 2022 red into an athletic shape. This is a stylish Vacqueyras from the talented Benjamin Gras." - 90 Points, Nicolas Greinacher
"Victoria plum and damson characters make for a very fruity style, approachable now with
its fine tannins and well-balanced acidity. From lieu-dit Les Aubes, at the foot of the
Vacqueyras hills, grown on sand." - 91 Points, Matt Walls
