Vacqueyras Domaine de Montbayon Reviews

Opaque purple. Very primary on the nose and palate, offering jammy dark berry flavors and a strong component of peppery spices. Fleshy, nicely focused wine with good closing cut and lingering spiciness. This estate is owned by the Louis Bernard firm.

This is a dark, succulent profile, with lots of mixed berry, plum sauce and fig paste notes laced with licorice root and ganache, all carried by well-imbedded acidity. Shows nice grip and purity through the finish. Best from 2013 through 2020.
