2014 Vacqueyras Rouge “Cuvée Doucinello”

Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Discount Eligible $34.00
SOLD OUT
Why pick up a bottle of 2014 Doucinello? Vigneron Serge Ferigoule’s answer could not be more concise: “There is no reason to hesitate before opening a 2014. It’s good—why ask questions?—just drink.” Coming from an amply mustachioed man with a southern melody in his voice, this is all you should need to hear. But for the curious, there’s concentrated red fruit, plenty of Provençal herbs, texture, balance, and all of the southern charm you could hope for.

Kermit inspecting wine barrels

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
