Tasting notes

The Vacqueyras les Christins is a 75-25 blend of Grenache and Syrah, matured in foudres and tanks. Scents of baked cherries are underscored by hints of darker fruit and licorice on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is supple and easygoing, then ends with softly dusty tannins.

About this wine

Famille Perrin is a renowned wine producer based in the Rhône Valley of France. The family has been producing wine for over a century and has established itself as one of the most respected wine producers in the region. The Les Christins Vacqueyras is one of their most popular wines, known for its rich and complex flavor profile.

The history of Famille Perrin dates back to the early 20th century when the family purchased their first vineyard in the southern Rhône Valley. Over the years, they have acquired several other vineyards in the region, each with its unique terroir and microclimate. The family has always been committed to sustainable and organic farming practices, which is reflected in the quality of their wines.

The Les Christins Vacqueyras is made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes, which are handpicked and sorted to ensure only the best grapes are used. The wine is aged in oak barrels for 12 months, which gives it a rich and complex flavor profile. On the nose, the wine has aromas of black cherry, blackberry, and spice, while on the palate, it is full-bodied with flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and a hint of vanilla.

Famille Perrin also produces several other wines, including the Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which is considered one of the best wines in the world. The family's commitment to quality and sustainability has earned them several accolades over the years, including the prestigious Wine Spectator's Wine of the Year award.

Overall, the Les Christins Vacqueyras is a testament to the family's dedication to producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Rhône Valley. Its rich and complex flavor profile makes it a popular choice among wine enthusiasts, and its history and production process make it a fascinating wine to explore.
