Note di degustazione
A terrific example of this cuvée, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Quartz is an 80-20 blend of Grenache and Syrah, matured in used demi-muids and used barrels, respectively. Scents of crushed stone accent cherries and raspberries on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is bolstered by silky tannins, ample concentration and exemplary length.

The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Quartz brings up the intensity and offers more of everything. Framboise, spicy garrigue, black tea, and flowers all emerge from this medium to full-bodied, nicely balanced, downright pretty wine. It doesn't have the concentration of a great vintage but has considerable elegance. I found too many of these 2020s from Le Clos du Caillou to be surprisingly light in color and lacking in concentration.
70% Grenache, 30% Syrah. Aged in demi-muids (60%), old barrels and amphorae. Organic. Cask sample. Deepest colour of the four Clos du Caillou cuvées (plenty of Syrah). The aromatics are again restrained but there’s an attractive pitch of fruit and a spicy note that grows with aeration. Rich and sweet, the fruit really concentrated on the palate. Tannins firm but very fine and completely interwoven with the fruit. Another for ageing. (JL)
