Tasting notes
The 2020 Vacqueyras Réserve is adorable. Pronounced blood orange, raspberry, red cherry, licorice and garrigue aromas rise up from the glass. Traces of mint and quince add more layers. Sexy and inviting, this 2020 joins the utterly seductive red group crafted at Château de Tours for decades. Silky tannins contribute to a seamless, almost weightless mouthfeel. A drop-dead gorgeous Vacqueyras with a long life ahead.

45% Marsanne, 25% Roussanne, 15% Grenache Blanc, 15% Viognier. Grassy and underripe on the nose. Acidity marked on the palate. Aggressive and lacking fruit. (JL)
About the producer

Domaine des Tours is a separate label to Ch. des Tours, however both ranges are made at the same Vacqueyras property. Part of the Rayas galaxy and made by Emmanuel Reynaud, the wines are a source of great value and offer a glimpse of the Rayas style.
