The 2007 Vacqueyras Vieilles Vignes (also a Grenache/Syrah blend that spent 12 months in foudre and 12 months in small barrels) reveals a dense purple color along with a sumptuous bouquet of licorice, creosote, roasted herbs, black currants, and blackberries. It reveals impressive density and richness as well as a full-bodied mouthfeel. Drink this well-made, long wine for 5-6 years.
