The quality for price is outstanding. In 1936 “Caillou’s owner had no desire to join the governing ranks of anything, let alone a wine appellation. This brazen act excluded the estate from the AOC and essentially carved out a chunk of Châteauneuf-du-Pape‘s border. Today it continues to be an ‘unclassified’ section in what is otherwise some of the most prized vineyard land in the area“-Ian Cauble, master sommelier — 3 years ago

Mid to bright gold in colour. A note of paraffin Notes of Orange marmalade, toast, apricot, mangoes and almonds. Intensity off the charts. How can you get this much flavour into a wine. A fitting finish to a marvellous dinner. Hats off to the Downs Club - Mark Kennedy the chef, and Peter Barbe the Sommelier. May there be many more such dinners, also Ramon the importer who spoke about each wine with great knowledge. — 4 years ago
Smooth a nicely-balanced Chardonnay without the sour taste most Chardonnays have. Bright and slightly fruity but not too sweet. — 7 months ago

Anniversary lunch at Terry’s in Carmel. This Blanc de Blanc was delicious with small bubbles, low alcohol, dry yeasty tastes and flavors of lemon and pair. — 19 days ago
