Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Vieilles Vignes 2001
France / Rhône Valley
This still has years to shine! Dark and dense, with smooth tannins and vibrant fruit—notes of jellied red fruits and sultry touches of coffee and caramel make it irresistible. One of our more complicated selections (Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah and old-vine Carignan from some 50+ tanks, barrels and foudre) and certainly one of the most complex and enchanting. Unfiltered.

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Vieilles Vignes 2002
France / Rhône Valley
The sleeper favorite of our selections! From an all but dismal year, this selection has blossomed into a southern Rhone with Burgundian grace, youthful color and exceptional aromas. Old-vine Grenache takes on Pinot Noir characteristics with age; if you want to blow your mind, try this wine.

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Vieilles Vignes 2003
France / Rhône Valley
A beautiful wine from the “canicule” of 2003, this selection has matured with grace and class, showing rich poached black fruits and hints of coffee and licorice. Juicy, earthy and very impressive.

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Vieilles Vignes 2006
France / Rhône Valley
Tremendous texture and depth; sweet, ripe purple fruits and spices jump from the glass of this deliciously complete, almost creamy wine. Outstanding.

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Quartz 2006
France / Rhône Valley
Smooth and silky, with an undercurrent of vibrant minerality that expresses itself in spice and notes of crushed stones from perfume to finish. Crushed raspberries and plums blend with bass notes of chocolate and soy sauce…

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône-Villages Vieilles Vignes 1998
France / Rhône Valley
Beautifully evolved and elegant; notes of milk chocolate and tobacco on the nose, with dried yet sweet red fruits and garrigue spice. A spectacular vintage that keeps on giving. Unfiltered.

Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône-Villages Très Vieilles Vignes 1999
France / Rhône Valley
Sweet, round and undeniably luscious. Chocolate covered cherries and stunning garrigue spices; the estate’s older Grenache vines really shine here. Delicious!

Le Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2000
France / Rhône Valley
Classic structure, impressive poise and grace; this is deep and earthy, with notes of autumn woods, chocolate-covered plums, licorice and lavender. Wonderfully complex and engaging. Unfiltered.

Le Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Unique 1998
France / Rhône Valley
Sultry and dense, still dazzlingly youthful and rich. Rich and robust fruit, with plenty of savory black/red fruit notes, edged with dark chocolate. Decadent!

Le Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape Reserve 1999
France / Rhône Valley
Made only in the finest of years, this 1999 has surpassed all expectations. Good structure and incredible concentration, with a riot of sensations (ginger, soy sauce, mint) on the nose and palate. Very sexy.
