Score 90-93/100 · Robert Parker, Oct 2010
The 2009 Vacqueyras Vieilles Vignes (80% Grenache and 20% Mourvedre aged in cement) exhibits copious aromas of roasted herbes de Provence, meat juices, mushrooms, blueberries, blackberries and camphor. This thick, rich, full-bodied wine should be ready to drink before the Cuvee G, but last just as long. These are both very impressive wines! (Not yet released) This 42-acre, biodynamically farmed estate makes three cuvees of Vacqueyras, but their 2009 regular Vacqueyras was unexpectedly disappointing based on the showing of its two siblings.
