2021 Vacqueyras “Un Sang Blanc”
Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
This blanc opens with all the lusciousness you might expect from a Rhône Valley white blend, evoking melon, peach, and chamomile, but it finishes with a refreshing and zesty citrus note that makes it an outstanding bottle to serve alongside all kinds of seafood or fresh cheeses.

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
