Appealing plum and damson aromatics unfold onto a fresh palate with juicy acidity, making it highly drinkable. Plenty of crisp black cherry too. A big burst of fruit, no great length but a real thirst quencher. Black cherry stones on the finish, and ripe tannin. Now includes an extra half a hectare of Counoise.
Vibrant and sexy, the 2022 Vacqueyras Cuvée Floureto dazzles with bright violet, black cherry, black plum, garrigue and white pepper aromas. It is crafted from early harvested Grenache and Syrah with tiny jolts of Mourvèdre and Cinsaut, all aged for ten months in old oak foudres. Ever-so-smooth tannins frame this medium-bodied 2022 and have that characteristic nervy tension that winemaker Frédéri Férigoule brings. It finishes on a refreshing note and contains 13.9% alcohol.
