From 45 year old vines, the Ughetto's draw this essence of Vacqueyras, expressing the class of the local Grenache to perfection: the wine opens slowly with spicy and earthy aromas, drawing on liquorice and blackcurrant; it offers a firm but noble structure, a wine that is sappy but not without freshness, a sign of a well-controlled sunny vintage. Excellent!
