Under talented winemaker Bruno Gaspard and the current owners, the Vacheron family, Clos du Caillou has established itself as one of the best producers in the Rhône. The 2007 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Réserve is a blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Mourvèdre. The nose is quite powerful, with aromas of sweet spices, tobacco leaves, dry prunes and some flint. On the palate, notes of fig liqueur, candied dates and oriental spices.
