This enviably situated and immaculately groomed estates, whose 70 hectares sit just below Rayas and the esteemed Pignan vineyards and are based on similar, sand-dominated soils, has emerged as one of the most consistent domains in the appellation in recent years. The style of wines made by the Bréchet family under the consultancy of--who else--Philippe Cambie is one of assertive, often flamboyant fruit character and expansive bouquets, with supple tannins that allow for early to mid-term drinking. The wines are based heavily on old-vine Grenache, with all of the other permitted grapes planted across the domain's 60 distinct parcels of vines and used to varying degrees in all of the Vaudieu wines save the Amiral G bottling, which is made exclusively from the oldest Grenache vines on the property. As cuddly as these wines can be soon after release, it would be a mistake to broach them too early as they also possess the depth and balance to repay patience--and that goes for the entry-level wine as well.
