The Cazaux 2022 Vacqueyras Cuvée St. Roch is an elegant, refined wine from the southern Rhône that perfectly reflects the characteristic qualities of Vacqueyras. The wine has a deep ruby colour with purple reflections. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe red berries, raspberries and plums unfold, combined with subtle notes of violets, black pepper and Provençal herbs. On the palate this wine is smooth and balanced, with a refined structure and lively acidity. Flavours of ripe red fruit, spicy nuances and a hint of cedarwood create a harmonious complexity. The tannins are silky, and the finish is long and fresh, with a subtle mineral touch.
Excellent with roast duck, leg of lamb with rosemary or a spicy ratatouille.
