Le Clos du Caillou is a southern Rhône wine estate that has risen to prominence in the last 5 years and whose organic wines are now keenly sought-after. The 1999 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Réserve is gorgeously concentrated, with a perfect balance of rich Grenache fruitiness and Mourvèdre`s tannic backbone. Plenty of black plums, black pepper, blackberries and olive and some bittersweet chocolate on the finish.

($80; from a site not far from Chateau Rayas, with a blend of reddish sand, chalk and galets roules; aged in a single new foudre Full medium ruby. Strongly mineral aromas of cassis, black cherry, plum, tobacco and smoky oak. Sweet, rich and layered; more harmonious today than the Quartz bottling. Lovely minerality gives vibrancy to the flavors. Finishes with substantial ripe tannins that really spread out to coat the palate. Shows exotic wood notes, as well as a strong chocolatey character, on the finish.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2002
