89-91 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: From an eight-hectare plot, located near Sarrians, and a warmer terroir, the 2012 Famille Perrin Vacqueyras les Christins is a co-ferm ented blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah. Harvested together, based off when the Grenache is fully ripe, the Syrah at this point is mostly overripe. This shows and the wine has an exotic quality, with hints of plum, purple fruit, licorice, pepper and violets all emerging from the glass. Medium to full-bodied, voluptuously texture and with good freshness, it’s an interesting, character-filled wine to drink over the coming 7-8 years or so. Drink 2014-2021. Show more
