Rich and Generous Expression of Vacqueyras

Tasting Notes

Colour: A deep ruby red with vibrant purple reflections.
Nose: Intense and generous, the nose bursts with rich black fruit aromas, followed by subtle spicy notes that add complexity.
Palate: Full and rich on the palate, this wine offers great freshness alongside silky, elegant tannins. The flavour profile is dominated by bright red fruits, making it both approachable and structured, with a long, satisfying finish.

Perfect Serve

Serve at 16–18°C, ideally paired with grilled meats, roast lamb, or Mediterranean dishes such as couscous with vegetables and lamb. A brief decant (30 minutes to 1 hour) will help open up the wine’s full potential, showcasing its smooth tannins and fruit-driven profile.

Artisan Craftsmanship

The grapes for M. Chapoutier Vacqueyras Avarum 2022 are grown on calcareous sandstone and gravelly clay terraces, where the unique terroir imparts a strong sense of place. The vineyard’s combination of soil types and Mediterranean climate leads to optimal grape ripening, ensuring the wine’s full expression.

After hand-harvesting, the de-stemmed grapes undergo fermentation in concrete tanks, with the fermentation temperature carefully controlled at around 25°C to preserve the aromatic qualities of the varietals. Gentle daily pumping over operations delicately extracts colour, tannins, and aromatics, while post-fermentation maceration lasts for four weeks, further refining the wine’s structure.

The wine is primarily aged in concrete vats, with a small portion maturing in 600-litre barrels, ensuring a balance of freshness and subtle oak influence. After 12 months, the wine is bottled, ready to reveal its beautiful complexity.
