Le Clos du Caillou Cuvée Les Quartz Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2001 is a mature, full-bodied Southern Rhône red blend from the historic Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. Produced from organically farmed Grenache and Syrah grown on rocky, sandy soils, Cuvée Les Quartz offers a concentrated, richly textured and perfumed CNDP with superb ageing potential. "The 2001 Châteauneuf du Pape Les Quartz was a total shocker, and was easily the best bottle of this I’ve had; more than one taster at this retrospective had it as their wine of the tasting. Giving up phenomenal notes of blackcurrants, beef blood, ground pepper and crushed rock, it flows onto the palate with full-bodied richness, outrageous concentration and a finish that won’t quit."

The 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Quartz was a total shocker, and was easily the best bottle of this I’ve had; more than one taster at this retrospective had it as their wine of the tasting. Giving up phenomenal notes of blackcurrants, beef blood, ground pepper and crushed rock, it flows onto the palate with full-bodied richness, outrageous concentration and a finish that won’t quit. I’ve had a few bottles that possessed excessive volatile acidity, but not this bottle, and I seriously toyed with the idea of adding another point on here. Regardless, it’s profound stuff to drink over the coming 3-4 years.

Deep ruby-red. Brooding aromas of medicinal dark fruits and bitter chocolate; showing its syrah side today. Then superripe and sweet, with a terrific creamy middle and deep red fruit flavors. This manages to be extremely primary and bright yet also pliant and approachable. Finishes with very ripe, sweet tannins and terrific length. Distinctly finer than the regular bottling.
