2023 Vacqueyras Rouge “Cuvée de Lopy”
Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Hailing from the family’s oldest vines, this bottling takes the depth, soul, and structure of Floureto up a level. Stony and smoky, and full of garrigue and black cherry, it is an epic wine that opens up wonderfully now, after a decant and alongside a ribeye, but will also evolve beautifully over the next ten years.
