Domaine Le Clos du Caillou Côtes du Rhône Le Caillou Blanc 2021
From Domaine Le Clos du Caillou in Courthézon, Southern Rhône, the Le Caillou Blanc 2021 is a refined blend of Clairette, Viognier, and Roussanne. Sourced from organic and biodynamic 45-year-old vines on sandy soils with galets roulés, it’s hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed, and aged in stainless steel, offering a pale gold hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A crisp, vibrant white with floral and fruit finesse, showcasing Rhône’s terroir.
The nose reveals unripe pineapple, peach, and green melon, with hints of white flowers, stone fruit, and mineral. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and fresh, with bright acidity, satiny tannins, and flavors of citrus, melon, and a clean, saline finish.
