Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar Scores

2010 Domaine La Ligiere Vacqueyras

Score: 90 points

Review: Full ruby. Powerful scents of blackberry, cherry compote and baking spices. Quite supple and plush, with round, concentrated dark fruit flavors nicely lifted by juicy acidity. The sappy, sweet, finish features fine-grained tannins and very good persistence.

2011 Domaine La Ligiere Vacqueyras

Score: 91 points

Review: Deep ruby. Sexy, high-pitched aromas of red berry preserves, potpourri and Asian spices, plus a bright mineral overtone. Sappy and seamless on the palate, offering intense raspberry and cherry flavors and a suave floral pastille nuance. Finishes spicy and impressively long, with harmonious tannins adding shape. Drinking very well right now but should age nicely on its balance.
