Calmel & Joseph COTES DU ROUSSILLON 2024

Ripe dark fruits and a smokey finish.

Mouthwatering notes of strawberry guava and a hint of grapefruit lead into a crisp and refreshing texture on the palate. True to Klinker Brick style, this wine retains an exceptional balance of freshness and aromatics, while still providing the dry finish.

Since the elevation of Cairanne to a southern Rhône cru, this first release of 'La Côte Sauvage' continues to be characterised by its finesse and finely-grained texture, due in part to the famous ‘argilo-calcaire’ of hilltop vineyards such as La Pauline and Les Six Terrasses, slow wine making methods and gentle maturation in different sized barrels of old French oak.

Aromas of boxwood, wild juniper and cistus flowers give way to notes of red fruit, cherry and redcurrant. The sensation in the mouth is delicate, smooth and balanced with a succulently fruity and spicy finish.
