LE CLOS VACQUEYRAS 2007 AC
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer MONTIRIUS
Intense purple colour. Slightly earthy, spicy, baked, plummy, black cherry nose with lots of black licorice notes. Dry, tangy, medium to medium-full bodied, licorice-tinged, warm ripe plum flavours with a lingering, crisp, vanilla-tinged finish. Harmonious, well balanced, and quite delightful! Note that the average price of this red in the US is $31. The recommended/best buy 2006 (***) was released on December 10, 2010 at $26.95. CSPC 76547

It exhibits gorgeous notes of kirsch liqueur, licorice, and smoked herbs, a full-bodied, fleshy mouthfeel, pure fruit, sweet tannin, and a long finish.
