Description
Sylvie Vacheron and Bruno Gaspard, owners of the renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate Le Clos du Caillou, produce an unparalleled and very accessible red Côtes du Rhône. The grapes come from a sixty-year-old vineyard in the commune of Courthezon, planted primarily with Grenache.
The vineyard borders Châteauneuf-du-Pape and is cultivated entirely organically. The hand-picked grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks and traditional concrete vats, after which the wine ages in concrete vats. Vacheron and Gaspard's goal is to make this wine as elegant as possible, while preserving the spiciness and fruit notes of the Grenache.
This incredibly beautiful Côtes du Rhône is therefore not a dark-colored, massive wine. It is precisely its accessibility and great refinement that makes it stand far above the average quality of this well-known appellation. Feel free to serve the wine slightly chilled (in summer), at around 15 to 16°C. Drink it, for example, with sausage, pâté, or grilled chicken – enjoyment guaranteed.
