Description
This wine puts the spotlight on the grape variety, which incarnates the character of the south, Caladoc. It is a relatively unknown variety from the south of France, a cross between Malbec and Grenache, with a strong flamboyant personality that reflects its terroir. Pure and juicy, with stunning fruit, Caladoc likes extremes. The principal distinguishing feature of this variety is its dense, almost black colour. It is also recognisable for its aromas of very ripe red fruit and a slight spiciness. In the mouth it is concentrated and very fruit forward with a superb tannic structure.
