Ce Cornas Chaillot s'ouvre sun un nez puissant, où se mêlent nuances de fruits noirs, de tabac, de truffe et de poivre. En bouche, il se révèle dense, avec une austérité qui témoigne de son potentiel de vieillissement. Une décennie supplémentaire en cave lui permettra de s'épanouir pleinement, mais la promesse d'un plaisir certain vaut largement la patience requise.

Terroir : terroir réputé de Chaillot en appellation Cornas.

Vinification et élevage : vinification est faite en grappes entières avec levures indigènes, puis la macération dure de 12 à 15 jours. Une fermentation malolactique se produit en fûts et l’élevage dure 18 mois dans les fûts de 600 litres.

Accords mets/vin : gigot d'agneau, magret de canard, pintade rôtie.

The Estate Franck Balthazar

"Casimir Balthazar fonde le domaine au début des années 1920, et achète la parcelle des Chaillots en 1931. Le domaine, dirigé depuis 2002 par Franck Balthazar, est en culture biologique depuis 2010. Tous les sols sont travaillés à la pioche et au treuil.

 

En 2013, il acquiert une petite parcelle de Saint-Péray, située sur des argiles sur socle granitique. Les vinifications sont classiques : uniquement de la vendange entière, une fermentation courte en cuve béton.

 

Les élevages ne connaissent pas le bois neuf. Nous aimons le style des vins du domaine, qui exprime avant tout le terroir, sans aucun artifice." 2* RVF Guide

The Estate Le Clos du Caillou

The Clos du Caillou estate has the particularity of being an enclave adjacent to the Châteauneuf du Pape appellation area. The vineyard is made up of 44 hectares of Côtes du Rhône and 9 hectares of Châteauneuf du Pape, planted for the most part in 1956. It is composed of the 13 grape varieties authorised for the production of a Châteauneuf du Pape, the Grenache grape variety is the majority for the red wines, followed by Syrah, while the clairette rose, the grenache blanc and the roussanne share the majority of the white grape varieties. The soils here are particularly rich, sandy or pebbly, making it possible to produce wines of exemplary aromatic complexity.
All these specificities, gathered at the heart of the Clos du Caillou estate, allow us to offer very high quality Côtes du Rhône wines, such as the magnificent Quartz vintage, which demonstrates the richness of these exceptional terroirs. In addition, Sylvie Vacheron and Bruno Gaspard have been converting the estate to organic farming since 2006. The 2010 vintage was the first to benefit from the organic label (AB), which completes the quality of the work undertaken for decades. An estate to be followed closely, with all the qualities to produce the best... Discover the best vintages on the Passionnés du Vin website; Bouquet des garrigues, Quartz, Safres, Cuvée réserve; all of these vintages will brighten up your taste buds (in moderation) and go wonderfully well with a multitude of dishes, for an exceptional tasting experience.
