Tasting Note

The Caillou Blanc has a clear and bright colour, with golden highlights. On the nose, are aromas of exotic fruits such as pineapple and passion fruit, combined with more floral notes, delivering a fresh and gourmet bouquet. The palate has a nice tension and reveals a creamy texture. White-fleshed fruits and the salinity with a hint of bitterness bring a lovely freshness. A structured, fresh and digestible white Côtes-du-Rhône.

About the Winery

Le Clos du Caillou

Le Clos du Caillou, the French wine brand, was established in 1895 by Elie Dussaud. When the old cellar was created this early, it led to a lot of political turmoil. As a result, Le Clos du Caillou was excluded from the Appellation of Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Until 1955, this land was nothing but a hunting reserve. It was only in this year that the woods were cleared because Paul Poulzin realised the vine-value of the land beneath the woods.
