Domaine de la Curnière, AOC Vacqueyras, Red, 2024

Presentation

Presentation
The Rame family, from Vacqueyras, settled on the "La Curnière" lieu-dit and started planting vines by the end of the 18th Century. More than two centuries later, the Rame family perpetuates its know-how and runs the vineyards under sustainable practices to offer a fruity and authentic wine.
The vintage
2024 has been full of weather challenges. Spring brought disease pressure, summer droughts reduced yields, and heavy rains in September added to the difficulties. Even so, the great quality of the wines reflects the skill, dedication, and great adaptability of our Artisans winegrowers and winemakers.

On these sunny slopes, north of the village of Vacqueyras, Grenache & Syrah grapes flourish on a great terroir, made of fine, light-brown clay sands of the "Font des Papes cone" (Miocene period - end of the Tertiary).
