Description
This wine puts the spotlight on a grape variety which incarnates the character of the South. Caladoc is a relatively unknown variety from the south of France, a cross between Malbec and Grenache with a strong personnality. 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 spiceness. In the mouth it is concentrated and very fruit forward, with a superb tannic structure. This wine offers the very best that Caladoc has to give. It may be enjoyed immediately or kept for up to 3 years
