Vacqueyras Domaine des Genêts AC 0.75L

Vacqueyras represents the rugged, sun-drenched heart of the southern Rhône — and Delas Frères, one of the oldest and most prestigious négociant houses in the Rhône Valley, brings precisely this character to the glass with their Domaine des Genêts. Grenache dominates the blend, giving the wine its characteristically warm, full-bodied structure.

In the glass, it shines a deep, purplish-red with violet reflections. The bouquet is intense and complex: ripe plum, red berries, and licorice, along with hints of dark chocolate, violets, and Mediterranean spices like thyme and black pepper—a nod to the garrigue. On the palate, the wine is round and powerful, with a velvety mouthfeel and a long, spicy finish.

Ready to drink now, but will keep for several years. Serving temperature 16–18 °C. Ideal with braised lamb with olives, Provençal beef stew, or mature goat cheese. Also a convincing accompaniment to a relaxed evening with good company and a charcuterie board.
