Sous les Cailloux des Grillons, supple, red fruit, lively, Natural red wine. Sous Les Cailloux is a frank and fresh wine with red fruit, fluidity and a touch of tannin. Short skin time for this blend of at least 7 varietals, one year’s ageing in tank only! It is bursting with bramble and blackberry flavours. There’s a savoury edge which is unsurprising given the savoury notes given to wine by Syrah and Mourvedre. A touch of eucalyptus finishes this wine off nicely. In the mouth it’s silky, without overpowering tannins.

Chris Wicks –
Powerful, taught with deep bright garnet. Plum and violet like flavors. This wine needs food and will work with fatty meats that need to be cut through. Duck and pork etc. Been a fan of this for a long while and like it’s natural and fresh attack.
