Domaine Mas du Bouquet
Vacqueyras Grenache Blend
!needs air! This wine has all the classic sensations for the area, leather ,lead and dark fruit, both in your nose and in the palette. wine Gimp. Interesting horseshoe tannins that writhe around the fleshy parts of my inner cheeks. Would buy again. Great vintage. 2010.

not an appellation that i often like, but it has enough nerve. chip at AHD has a knack for these things.

The fruit seems overwhelmed by everything else going on, so it's a little off balance. But it's still really interesting. It worked well with pork chops and a spicy homemade applesauce.

Apr 24th, 2016I’m impressed. Had this with lemon asparagus ravioli & blue cheese, which was weird, but this wine really balanced it out.

Apr 2nd, 2016Very nice wine with legs for days. Slight fruit...but a strong finish that bends more to the dirt it was grown in. Very good and will enjoy it again.
