Clos du Caillou’s Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Réserve 2020 is a rare and iconic cuvée crafted from the estate’s oldest Grenache and Mourvèdre vines. It displays stunning aromatic complexity: ripe black fruits, cocoa, violet, exotic spices, and deep garrigue. The palate is dense yet silky, supported by refined tannins and vibrant mineral freshness. A powerful, contemplative wine built for long aging.

Why choose this wine:

Clos du Caillou stands among the elite in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and La Réserve 2020 is its crowning achievement. This wine delivers extraordinary depth and finesse, making it ideal with game, aged meats, or refined sauced dishes. A rare gem with exceptional aging capacity, La Réserve is a must for serious collectors of Rhône greatness.

The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Reserve is the usual co-fermented blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvèdre that’s still aging mostly in demi-muids, with a small amount in amphora. It’s another incredibly elegant yet ripe, concentrated 2020 that has the vintage’s purity and freshness front and center. Lots of black raspberry and cassis fruit as well as pepper, flowers, and Provençal herbs define the bouquet, and it has polished tannins that emerge on the palate. I’d put it up with the crème de la crème of the vintage.
