Domaine Le Clos des Cazaux Vacqueyras Cuvée St Roch 2022

70% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 5% Mourvèdre

This Cuvée is made with grapes from old vines that are between 30 and 60 years old which are situated on the slopes at the entry of the estate. The soils are mainly clay-limestone marl with some sand.

Dark garnet in colour. Rich and complex bouquet with aromas of red fruits, pepper and cocoa. On the palate, the wine delivers lovely red fruits and pepper that are coated in firm, but fine tannins giving way to a delightful fresh finish. The wine can be drunk young with food that combines well with its tannins. It is best enjoyed 5 to 8 years from the vintage date when the tannins soften, thus allowing the fruit complexity to dominate.

15.50€

Shipping costs are calculated per box of 6 bottles. Each box can contain a mixed selection of wines.

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.
