92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
The Vacqueyras Les Hauts De La Ponche is 50% Grenache and 25% each of Syrah and Mourvèdre. It actually reminds me of a Pomerol with its red and blue fruits as well as bouquet garni, damp earth, and floral nuances. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, I love its balance, and it has silky tannins and remarkable purity of fruit. Drink bottles over the coming 7-8 years.

Font Sarade Vacqueryas Les hauts de La Ponche 2022
92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
It’s been a while since I brought you anything from Vacqueryas, but this is a Big Red that absolutely deserves your attention and a place at the Thanksgiving table this year. This was made off a plateau in VAcqueyras known as ‘La Ponche’ with clay marl and rolling rocks. It’s a beautiful wine with jammy red fruits, that classic licorice flavor and some baking spices and, thyme and anise. It’s as open and inviting as you could want a GSM – just an easy-drinking, mass appeal type of wine.
