Domaine Le Clos des Cazaux Vacqueyras Vieilles Vignes 2022 (Max 6 Bottles)
70% Old vine Clairette (up to 80 yrs old) with Roussanne and Viognier.
Sandy south-east facing slopes (Miocene sandstone)
Deep gold in colour. A very expressive nose with floral, grilled almond and verbena aromas. Opulent on the taste with an explosion of fruity aromas, pear, pineapple and toasted almonds. The balance, smoothness and great concentration of this wine is revealed in the middle of the taste. It has a wonderfully long finish, which is marked by the persistence of the fruit and freshness. This is a gastronomic food wine that will accompany rich fish dishes, poultry and mature cheeses. The wine will continue to improve with age.

Producer profile
Domaine Clos des Cazaux has been growing wine for five generations and is based on two families, the Vaches and the Archimbauds. The domaine is now run by two brothers, Jean-Michel and Frédéric Vache. Their ancestor, Gabriel Archimbaud was the first to bottle wine in Vacqueyras. Gabriel created Le Clos des Cazaux in 1936. Today the domaine cultivates 48 ha (122 acres), of which 24 ha are in Vacqueyras, 20 ha are in Gigondas and 4 ha are in Côtes du Rhône. The Gigondas terroir is located on the small section of the appellation that is south facing which brings riper, bigger fruit than is generally found in the other wines of the appellation. Cazaux’s Gigondas soils are very high in limestone content which underpin a great mineral edge to their two cuvées. The Prestige cuvée made from old vines is partially aged in oak which provides additional complexity without over-powering the expression of terroir in the wine.
