點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：25212

The medium ruby-colored 2005 Vacqueyras reveals loads of spring flower-like notes intermixed with black cherries, raspberries, loamy soil, and roasted Provencal herbs. A sumptuous, full-bodied, flavorful, long, head-turning seductress, it should provide immense enjoyment over the next decade. Chateau des Tours is Emmanuel Reynaud’s (the nephew of the late Jacques Reynaud as well as the winemaker at Chateau Rayas and Fonsalette since 1997) home estate. His wines are always complex, aromatic efforts that never possess much color, but offer plush, full-bodied textures as well as plenty of personality. All of these cuvees are fairly-priced, especially the Vin de Pays and Cotes du Rhone. Both the 2006 and 2005 Vin de Pays are blends of 70% Grenache and the rest Counoise and Cinsault. There are 2,000 cases of the top cuvee, the Rayas-like Vacqueyras, a 100% Grenache cuvee made from fruit grown in pure sandy soils.Importer: Martine’s Wines, Novato, CA; tel. (415) 883-0400
