Made from a similar blend as the 2007 Vacqueyras Carte d-Or, with an identical upbringing, the 2007 Vacqueyras Cuvee Tradition offers notes of ground pepper, blackberries, ripe cherries, roasted herbs, and spice as well as a thick, succulent texture. It should drink well for 5-7 years. All three of these offerings are sensational bargains. There are three superb 2007s from Domaine de la Brunely (a large estate of 124 acres with 53 in the heart of Vacqueyras). The Cuvee Tradition and Cuvee Carte d-Or are aged 12 months in cement tanks, and the Cuvee La Tour aux Cailles spends 18 months in concrete.Importer: europvin USA, Van Nuys, CA
