Cuvée Doucinello Vacqueyras Red Rhone Blend 2022

9.2

2022 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 15 mins and one hour. Some grip and punch afoot intertwined with pretty, dark bramble fruit, earth and suggestions of tobacco. 09.25.25. — a month ago

Interesting wine, 13 grapes, natural without being annoying. Opens up nicely. Not overly heavy, nice balance. Fresh with good acid. Good suggestion from the fine folks at Joe Beef in Montreal, and a good pairing with the very rich food here. — 6 months ago

Wowza this is good. 80% Roussanne, and it shows. I love that grape. Such richness, and though the acidity is low, there’s great mineral tension here. So rich and enveloping. — 7 months ago

Love CdP blanc, but rarely buy it any longer. Sounds wonderful!!

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

9.1

A rich golden color and medium body, the wine is young, but already showing maturity and refinement. A strong nose of yellow/golden fruit compote or pie filling, peach cobbler I think, with a hint of cinnamon, white grape juice (from concentrate), and maybe some hint of leeks towards the edges. The palate is silky smooth, creamy, with energy though pulsing between the notes of whipped cream, rich yellow fruit spread, but also some mineral dryness to the edges, and a finish of dried apricot and peach. I’d let this age a few years, let that sweetness smooth out, and then relish in its refinement. — 8 days ago
