Tasting Notes

  • GDH

    Goedhuis, October 2018

    This Grenache based blend (65%) with 30% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre is vinified with no hint of new oak, and draws on the old Grenache vines for its concentration and intensity. Long maceration gives the wine deep colour and pronounced fruit aromas and flavours: crushed raspberries and blackcurrant purée. This wine is a juicy, luscious, plump style with ripe and generous fruit wrapped around the robust tannins.

Producer

Domaine le Clos de Cazaux

Brothers Jean-Michel and Frédéric Vache run this Southern Rhône estate with passion, determination and a great enthusiasm for their region. With an aversion to oak ageing, they are more interested in expressing the fruit character of the varieties and their terrific terroirs. Alongside this philosophy, late picking, long maceration periods, and extended élevages give the wines their signature primal density. This estate is an excellent source of good value wines.

Region

Vacqueyras

Vacqueyras is one of the newest appellations to emerge from the southern Rhône, moving up from Côtes du Rhône Villages in 1990. As a result, it also is one of the least known. Stylistically, its wines are rich and plump with more complexity and concentration than Côtes du Rhônes, but perhaps slightly less concentration than its neighbouring appellation, Gigondas. Like most things, though, this depends on the producer and vintage. Vacqueyras is made all three colours - red, white and rosé, mostly from 4 varieties - Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Carignan though the red is by far the most dominant. Due to its lesser known reputation, these wines often offer excellent value for money.
