2024 Vacqueyras Rouge “Azalaïs”
Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Serge Férigoule and his son Frédéri remind me a bit of the Mary Poppins characters Bert and Uncle Albert, who float to the ceiling because they love to laugh. Serge and Frédéri, similarly, almost levitate with their infectious, jovial nature, and this is reflected in their lively, joyous Vacqueyras. Velvety, red-fruited, and plummy, this gorgeous Grenache-forward red might not make you and your table drift up to the ceiling, but merrier you will certainly be.

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
