Wine Expert Note:

This Clos du Caillou Les Quartz Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a powerful and complex expression of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, and Vacarèse. On the nose, it displays aromas of black cherry, dried herbs, and licorice, while on the palate, it shows intense flavors of blackberry, fig, and spice, with a hint of pepper and smoke. The broad, velvety tannins are balanced by a bright acidity and a long finish. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 20 years.
