Note di degustazione
A linear and focused wine with a wild, energetic character that is simply electrified. Full-bodied, dense and layered with wild fruit and flamboyant. Drink or hold.

(racked): Very cloudy appearance. Aromas of lemon, green algae, sea salt, limestone and lavender; Mounir Saouma, who originally learned how to make wine at a Trappist monastery in Israel, says this is what the Dead Sea smells like and I'll take his word for it. Wonderfully refined and utterly seamless but with terrific palate-staining intensity and penetration to its flavors of lemon, lime, stone, herbs and saline minerals. This wine is carrying 14.6% alcohol and displays the thickness of the year but I might have guessed 2014. Pure crushed stone on the aftertaste, which shows grand cru length. Really extraordinary minerality for Caillerets in a hot year.
