- The wine displays considerable finesse for its appellation. A supple palate with measured tannins and genuine length on the finish, this is neither over-extracted nor heavy-handed.

Product features : Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape les Safres 2020 — Châteauneuf-du-Pape — Organic
Breeding
In large wooden vats (75%) and demi-muids (25%) for 14 months
On the eye
Deep amaranth red with purple reflections. Clear and bright.
On the nose
Aromas of red berries and black cherry, with subtle notes of orange zest and a whisper of salted butter. The bouquet develops slowly, revealing mineral undertones.
In the mouth
Smooth and fresh on the palate, with flavours of cocoa seed and preserved cherry. The wine maintains good acidity throughout, with a lingering finish of dark fruit and spice.
An ideal companion to roasted venison and game preparations. The wine's structure and acidity make it equally at home with herb-crusted lamb or mushroom-based dishes. Decant thirty minutes before service to allow the aromatics to fully emerge.

LE CLOS DU CAILLOU
Situated in the heart of the Vallée du Rhône, Le Clos du Caillou is one of the most respected names in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, an appellation celebrated for its ancient rolled-stone terroirs and the sheer complexity it draws from the southern Rhône. The estate produces both red and white wines that speak with authority to the power and aromatic depth that define this great southern French appellation. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the consistency of its range, the precision of its winemaking, and the proven ability of its wines to age with genuine grace and composure. A reliable reference point for lovers of fine Rhône Valley wines.
CHATEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE ROUGE
Le Clos du Caillou cultive son vignoble en Agriculture Biologique depuis 2010 sur les terroirs de Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Cette cuvée Les Safres exprime un bel équilibre entre structure et finesse, avec une belle longueur en bouche. Rouge amarante aux reflets pourpres, il offre des arômes de fruits rouges, d\'écorce d\'orange et de beurre salé. À servir avec les petits gibiers ou une belle brochette de grives.
