In the mid-1990s, Philippe du Roy of Châteauneuf's famed Domaine de Villeneuve joined forces with consultant Philippe Cambie, seeking to produce 'authentic' (rather than flashy, souped-up and overblown) southern Rhône wines that owed their character to natural processes involving earth, vines, fruit, harvesting and winemaking. Gently-handled from vine to bottle, this spicy red, with classic peppery, meaty notes from the Cairanne region is as complex as Châteauneuf.

Long Product Description
Made by the Arnaud de Villeneuve cooperative in the Rivesaltes region of South West France this is what is know by the locals as a 'Vin Doux Naturelle'. This is curious as there is little 'naturelle' about making this. The must of the richly sweet Muscat grapes is arrested in its process of fermentation by the addition of raw alcohol.

A mélange of rich dark fruit from the twin pillars of Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon and spicy oak. Great length of flavour, true class.
The Caladoc grape is a hybrid of Grenache and Malbec. Vin de Pays of real quality from organic vineyards at the delta of the Rhône: the Arles estate of Pierre Cartier, whose brother Luc owns famous organic Provence estate Mas de Gourgonnier, for many years an Adnams favourite.
The Clos de Caveau estate lies amid woodland below the shattered peaks of the Dentelles de Montmirail because it was isolated and thus perfect for organic cultivation. 40 year-old vines and severe sorting keep yields very low indeed.
