{"title":"Domaine de Marcoux","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is lots to love about Marcoux. They're one of the few estates that stuck with local traditions, avoiding new oak, late picking, and all the tricks designed to get fantastic Parker scores. The funny thing is that the wines are so good that they get those Parker scores despite that!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBiodynamic farming helps.

The Vieilles Vignes bottling comes from their oldest Grenache vines, and 2010 is the vintage built to last: structured, pure, and deep, a wine some describe as built like a skyscraper. It's drinking beautifully now with air, but it's the most age-worthy of these releases, with decades of upside still ahead.
