Description

This is a Côtes du Rhône with serious pedigree, sourced from 50-year-old vines across the Rhône Valley’s distinctive soils of lithosol, marl, and red clay. This blend of 60% Grenache with Syrah, Mourvèdre, and a dash of Cinsault, Cournoise, and Carignan is bursting with depth, aged gently on lees with minimal sulphur to let the fruit’s natural vibrancy shine through.

Expect a plush, medium-to-full-bodied palate with a core of ripe red cherry, currant, and dark fruit, balanced by fine tannins and a creamy texture. Savoury notes of black olive, cocoa, and a touch of leather add complexity, while hints of pepper, garrigue, and underbrush evoke the Rhône’s rustic charm. This wine is drinking beautifully now, offering a long, smooth finish with just the right touch of spice.

Perfect for fans of authentic, expressive Rhône reds, Santa Duc’s Les Vieilles Vignes is refined, balanced, and ready to be enjoyed now, though it’s got the structure to age gracefully for those with patience.
