Domaine Fontaine de Clos "Reflets du L'Ame" Vacqueyras
Description
Vacqueyras AOC, Southern Rhône Valley
The 2022 vintage of Reflets de l’Âme captures the warmth and generosity of the southern Rhône with striking clarity. A blend dominated by Grenache, with Syrah and Mourvèdre adding structure and spice, this wine is a vibrant reflection of Vacqueyras’ rugged terroir and Mediterranean soul.
The nose is expressive, offering ripe blackberries, black cherry compote, dried herbs, and a whisper of lavender. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and velvety, with dark fruit at the core, supported by silky tannins and a thread of savory spice. There’s a lovely balance between ripeness and freshness, thanks to the slightly cooler nights of the 2022 growing season, which helped preserve acidity.
Aged in concrete to retain purity of fruit, this wine is approachable now but has the structure to evolve gracefully over the next 5–7 years. Pair it with herb-crusted lamb, grilled vegetables, or a hearty mushroom risotto.
Grenache 70%, Syrah 15%, Mourverdre 15%
