Domaine de la Charbonnière Vacqueyras 2021/20

60% Grenache, 40% Syrah

Sandy, clay soils with lots of rock on ancient raised river terrace.

Dark fruits with lovely touches of violets, black pepper and wild herbs. Medium to full-bodied, with smooth tannins. Lovely fruit and wild herb core and a great finish. A substantial Vacqueyras wine that can be drunk now on its fruit but will be even better 4 to 7 years from the vintage date.

Producer profile

The domaine is now run by the fourth generation of the Maret family, Veronique and Caroline. The original vineyards were purchased in 1912 by Eugene Maret as a gift for his wife. The estate was enlarged by their son, Fernand and his son, Michel was the first to produce wine in 1973. The estate includes 19ha in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, 6ha in Vacqueyras and 2ha of Côtes du Rhône. The terroir of Châteauneuf-du-Pape includes two large plots of quite distinct terroir which produce two quite different cuvées, “Mourre des Pedrix” (sandy soils) and “Les Hautes Brusquières” (stoney soils). The main Châteauneuf-du-Pape “Cuvée Domaine” is produced from a blend of many small, plots of varying terroir in the north east of the appellation. The Vacqueyras wine is grown on a stoney, clay plateau. The majority of the wines are fermented and aged in very “foudres” (large oak casks).
