"The 2021 Vacqueyras Domaine Miramont should be good, if not outstanding. Giving up lots of spicy, leather, peppery red and black fruit-like aromas and flavors, it's medium-bodied, has good purity, and a solid finish. As with most 2021s, it's going to drink nicely in its youth."

****
"Dark red; the bouquet is nicely intricate, with airs of iron-blood, dark berry fruit, garrigue herbs, roasting, all in place to emerge well. The palate is spiced, has a white pepper sprinkling, with cooked plums, damson fruits at its centre. The slightly chewy tannins have character and can fit in with time, while the finish bears cool red fruits. It will reward patience"
