Domaine de la Brunely, Les Secrets de la Licorne Vacqueyras 2022

91 points Jeb Dunnuck
"The 2022 Vacqueyras Les Secrets De La Licorne offers more complexity, with a darker ruby hue as well as impressive aromatics of both raspberry and strawberry fruits, some darker, licorice, peppery herb, and graphite notes, medium body, and a layered, elegant mouthfeel. A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah, it's going to have 7-8 years of longevity."

"The 2022 Vacqueyras Les Secrets de la Licorne holds a narrow lead over the Cuvée Rapahel from the same vintage. Jammy red fruits enter the scene, followed by minty hints with notes of licorice and dried herbs. Containing 14% alcohol, this elegant 2022 red is framed by soft tannins and shows remarkable palate intensity. The 2022 is a round and complete Vacqueyras with solid aging potential."
