Roucas Toumba Vacqueyras La Grande Terre 2024

Roucas Toumba Vacqueyras La Grande Terre 2024 is a Rhône red that brings together Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah in a classic Southern French blend. From Vacqueyras, one of the most respected appellations in the Southern Rhône, it offers the kind of depth, spice and structure that makes this style so appealing for lovers of full-bodied, terroir-driven wines.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby colour with ripe dark-berry fruit and a vivid, aromatic lift. The nose typically leans toward black cherry, plum, wild herbs and peppery spice, with the garrigue character of the Southern Rhône adding a savoury, sun-baked edge. On the palate, the wine is likely to be generous and layered, with Grenache bringing warmth and red fruit, Mourvèdre contributing structure and earthy depth, and Syrah adding freshness, spice and colour. It should show a long, satisfying finish and has the concentration to develop well over the next few years, gaining complexity with short- to medium-term cellaring.

Production
Vacqueyras sits on a terroir of sun-drenched Mediterranean climate, with stony soils and strong diurnal influence that help ripen grapes fully while preserving freshness. The blend of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah is a hallmark of the region, and the grapes are typically harvested at optimal maturity before being vinified separately to protect each variety’s character and balance.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for grilled lamb, roasted duck, beef stew, game, and Mediterranean dishes with herbs and olives. Serve it at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if you want the aromas to open up and the tannins to soften.

Producer
Roucas Toumba is a respected Vacqueyras producer known for expressive wines rooted in the character of the Southern Rhône. The estate focuses on traditional regional varieties and a style that balances richness, spice and freshness, helping to showcase why Vacqueyras has become such an important name in Rhône red wine.
