Wine from Vacqueyras

Nestled in the southern Rhône valley, the Vacqueyras wine region boasts a unique terroir of sun-kissed limestone and gravel soils, ideal for producing robust reds primarily from Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. Its wines offer rich berry flavors, herbal notes, and a velvety texture. Historically, Vacqueyras was a favored haunt of the Romans, and today, traditional winemaking practices are celebrated through local festivals. The region’s AOC designation, established in 1990, highlights its commitment to quality and heritage, making it a hidden gem within the Rhône.
