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. |

TASTING NOTE: A blend of equal parts Grenache and Syrah, the 2007 Vacqueyras Le Clos was brought up in cement tanks. It exhibits gorgeous notes of kirsch liqueur, licorice, and smoked herbs, a full-bodied, fleshy mouthfeel, pure fruit, sweet tannin, and a long finish. Score: 90-93 (Robert Parker Jr., erobertparker.com, Feb. 2009) |
