Le Clos du Caillou Les Safres 2017
Red
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, France
8.0
WineSaint
Ripe blackberry and cassis flow with remarkable intensity, layered with garrigue, violet and earthy minerality. Dense and powerful on the palate, built on a backbone of firm yet polished tannins. The finish shows excellent persistence with savory herbs and graphite. A structured Châteauneuf that rewards patience.
