2021 Vacqueyras “Un Sang Blanc”

Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Discount Eligible $66.00
SOLD OUT

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.

Where the newsletter started

Every three or four months I would send my clients a cheaply made list of my inventory, but it began to dawn on me that business did not pick up afterwards. It occurred to me that my clientele might not know what Château Grillet is, either. One month in 1974 I had an especially esoteric collection of wines arriving, so I decided to put a short explanation about each wine into my price list, to try and let my clients know what to expect when they uncorked a bottle. The day after I mailed that brochure, people showed up at the shop, and that is how these little propaganda pieces for fine wine were born.—Kermit Lynch
