Château des Tours Vacqueyras 2013 is a mature Southern Rhône red from an estate closely associated with the renowned Château Rayas. Its appeal lies in the combination of Vacqueyras’ generous, sun-ripened character and the Reynaud family’s distinctive place in the Rhône wine world.
Tasting Notes
With good storage, the wine may show a garnet hue and aromas of dried red and dark fruit, Mediterranean herbs, spice and earthy notes. On the palate, expect a developed, savoury profile with softened fruit and integrated tannins; the exact character will depend on the bottle’s condition.
The 2013 is now at a mature stage, so it is best approached as a wine to enjoy rather than cellar for many more years. Carefully stored bottles may still have further life, but individual bottles can vary.
Food & Serving
Try it with roast lamb, grilled meats, herb-seasoned vegetables or a slow-cooked stew. Serve around 16–18°C. If the wine has been stored undisturbed, stand it upright before opening and decant gently if sediment is present; taste first, as extended aeration may not benefit a mature bottle.
Producer
Château des Tours is associated with Emmanuel Reynaud, whose family is also known for Château Rayas. The estate’s Vacqueyras wines come from one of the Southern Rhône’s established appellations, making them a distinctive part of the wider Reynaud family portfolio.
