In a few words ...
Roucas Toumba, or "the fallen rock" in old Provencal, named after the ancient locality, is a small family estate in Vacqueyras. This is a blend of Grenache (60%), Syrah (20%) and Mourvèdre (20%) from an organically-farmed vineyard. A Vacqueyras close to its terroir, in keeping with the authenticity of the appellation's wines.

Appellation
Vacqueyras
The appellation Vacqueyras is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Roucas Toumba and its 7 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
