The 2016 Vacqueyras Vieux Clocher is what the family refers to as the "classic" Vacqueyras. Recently bottled, the blend of 70% Grenache, with the remainder split between Syrah and Mourvèdre, was still showing well, offering up raspberry fruit that shades into chocolate on the long, slightly warm finish. This medium to full-bodied wine isn't for long cellaring, but is already approachable.
