Domaine Sang des Cailloux Wine
Domaine Sang des Cailloux, run by the enigmatic Serge Ferigoule. The property is a somewhat disordered affair situated on the outskirts of Sarrians, a commune of Vacqueyras. Two cuvee are made here, a classical cuvee aged in foudre and an old vine cuvee aged in demi-muids. Primarily Grenache based, the grapes are hand picked, carefully selected and after fermentation are aged in old oak foudres for up to two years. There is no filtration at all here and the yields are extremely low. The results are big, chunky, very concentrated wines with their own style that set them apart from the vast majority of wines from this AOC which are frequently simple and, to be honest, ordinary. These wines are not for the faint hearted. They possess such amazing richness and levels of complexity that one would be fooled into thinking they were from a top estate in Chateauneuf-du-Pape.However, they are not a Gigondas or Chateauneuf. These wines are the finest in Vacqueyras, so full of character they give real pleasure and a sense of ‘place’. They represent what can be achieved with the terroir surrounding the village.
