A spectacular wine, the 2000 Le Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape Domaine du Caillou Reserve is a blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvedre and exhibits ripe, smoky and dark fruit driven aromatics. Along with stunning garrigue, grilled meat and charred earth notes, there’s a touch of graphite and noticeable new wood. The palate is full bodied with perfect structure, awesome purity and richness, sweet fruit and a blockbuster finish. Borderline perfection in my book.
