Domaine des Tours 2021, from the gravelly alluvial soils of Vaucluse, is an IGP Vaucluse red dominated by old-vine Grenache. Barrel-aged, it offers blackberry and licorice aromas, a velvety palate, and precise acidity. Ideal for aging 5 to 8 years, it pairs beautifully with game and cheese.
Domaine des Tours
Nestled in the heart of Vacqueyras, this family estate carries on a winemaking heritage where time seems to stand still, balancing tradition with exacting standards.
- Terroir: Gravelly alluvial soils of Vaucluse, where Grenache thrives under the southern Rhône sun, shaping wines of rare authenticity.
- Winemaking: An artisanal approach, with spontaneous fermentation in oak barrels and patient aging to reveal the purity of the fruit and the minerality of the soils.
Tasting notes for Domaine des Tours 2021
In the glass: A deep red color with garnet highlights and a silky, dense texture.
On the nose: Aromas of wild blackberry and black cherry intertwine with notes of garrigue, a hint of white pepper, and subtle mineral salinity.
On the palate: A direct, juicy opening, driven by lively acidity and chalky tension, while fine, elegant tannins extend a long, saline finish that hints at the terroir’s imprint.
Serve between 16 and 18°C in a Bordeaux-style red wine glass to bring out its complexity.
2021 vintage
A vintage in which freshness and ripeness complement each other, offering a rare balance of fruit and structure.
- Aging potential: 8 to 12 years; store in a cool cellar (12–14°C), away from light.
