Robe grenat profond aux reflets rubis sombres. Le nez est d’une complexité fascinante : d’abord sur les fruits noirs confits (mûre, prune, figue), puis sur des nuances d’épices douces, de réglisse, de cacao amer et de truffe noire. Avec l’aération, apparaissent des notes de garrigue, de romarin séché et de fumée, typiques du terroir sableux du domaine. En bouche, le vin impressionne par son volume et son équilibre : la matière est ample mais sans lourdeur, avec une texture soyeuse, presque caressante. Les tanins, parfaitement mûrs, se fondent dans une trame juteuse et fraîche. Finale longue et vibrante, légèrement saline.

Terroir : sols de sables et de safres (sable gréseux typique de l’appellation), enrichis de quelques galets roulés.

Vinification et élevage : vendanges manuelles, en petites caisses, avec un tri sévère à la vigne. La vinification en cuves tronconiques bois et béton, avec égrappage partiel selon la maturité des rafles. Les extractions se font en douceur, via des infusions lentes, sans recherche de puissance. Le vin est ensuite élevé pendant environ 18 à 20 mois en foudres, demi-muids et barriques de plusieurs vins.

Accords mets/vin : côte de bœuf grillée, carré de sanglier rôti, tajine d’agneau.

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.
