Maison Arnoux & Fils Vacqueyras Vieux Clocher 2017

Deep purple color with mauve highlights and its powerful fruity fragrances sprinkled with spice. All the intensity of the nose may be found in mouth, on a background structured by healthy tannins full of masculinity and packed in a full body. The finish is long and opens some late pepper touches that define its specificity.

The family property of 40 hectares extends over the plateau of the Garrigues. Plateau located to the west of the appellation, resulting from a geological fracture, it extends to Chateauneuf du Pape. Essentially constituted by clay - red limestone soils with rolled pebbles. Its great particularity lies in its rolled pebbles, which release the heat stored during the day, thus allowing the grapes to ripen optimally. These soils are favorable to low yields of grapes with a high concentration of tannins and aromas.
