Vacqueyras red La Dame de la Garrigue, produced by Gigondas LaCave, perfectly embodies the elegance of the southern Côtes du Rhône wines. Coming from a terroir of scrubland and limestone soils at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail, this red wine reveals all the aromatic richness and finesse that one expects from a Vacqueyras.
It first seduces with its light red color with ruby highlights. The nose is expressive, marked by aromas of red fruits such as cherry, wild strawberry and redcurrant, enhanced by notes of garrigue, liquorice and a subtly smoky touch. On the palate, this red Vacqueyras is supple and round, with melted tannins and a lovely freshness. The balance between fruit, structure and elegance makes it an accessible wine while remaining distinguished.
