Clos Saint Jean Les Calades IGP

Les Calades is a red wine from the well-known Clos Saint Jean winery, the producer of outstanding Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines from France. Although this wine is not officially called Châteauneuf-du-Pape, it is an exceptionally high-quality red wine that the Maurel family, now the fifth generation to own Clos Saint Jean, produces with the same dedication and commitment as its larger wine brothers.

The grapes for Les Calades are harvested by hand and during the harvest period, the grapes are tested daily to ensure that they are at the right ripeness so that the best time for harvesting can be chosen. Careful work is carried out in the cellar, e.g. using pneumatic presses to protect the grapes. Les Calades is matured in concrete tanks for nine months.

As with the other wines from Clos Saint Jean, this cuvée, which consists of 70% Grenache and 30% Caladoc, is bottled according to the lunar calendar.

This spicy, fragrant Châteauneuf-du-Pape impresses with plenty of dark fruit, with notes of currants, cherries, blackberries and plums. Overall, the ripe fruit bouquet is in the foreground here, as aromas of strawberry and some raspberry follow, with further hints of forest scents, licorice, mocha and mint. The palate offers a harmonious overall impression of good acidity, beautifully polished and well-integrated tannins and a lovely finish.

A sophisticated red wine that goes well with many Mediterranean dishes, but also with somewhat heartier and spicier dishes such as pasta, game, braised meat or goulash.

Product recommendation

Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge AOC
Der Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape stammt aus der renommierten Weinregion im südlichen Rhônetal in Frankreich. Die Weine dieser Region sind geprägt durch ihre Komplexität, Tiefe und Finesse. Clos Saint Jean macht hier keine Ausnahme; das Weingut ist bekannt für seine durchgehend hohe Exzellenz der Weine, bei immer noch sehr moderaten Preisen.Clos Saint Jean verfügt über zum Teil uralte Rebbestände, wobei die Familie Maurel, seit Generationen Besitzer von Clos Saint Jean, mit viel Liebe zum Detail arbeitet. So wird beispielsweise heute, nach der Fermentation im Betontank, der Grenache im Edelstahltank ausgebaut, während die 15% Syrah, 4% Mourvedre,  3% Cinsault, 2% Vaccarese  und 1% Muscardin in Barriques reifen dürfen. In Flaschen abgefüllt wird tatsächlich nach dem Mondkalender!Dieser Châteauneuf-du-Pape bietet eine beeindruckende Aromenvielfalt, darunter dunkle Früchte wie schwarze Kirschen, Erdbeer- und Himbeer-Touch, Gewürze wie schwarzer Pfeffer, etwas Salz, Kräuter und Schokolade. Der Gaumen offenbar viel Charme, Seidigkeit und Harmonie, mit einem außerordentlich langen Nachhall. Ein insgesamt sehr feinsinniger Wein, mit einem faszinierenden Spiel der Aromen, der immer wieder neue Nuancen entdecken lässt."Smooth on the outside and dense on the inside, like a billiard ball" schreiben die Maurels auf der Homepage über ihre Weine. Wir haben zwar noch keine Billiard-Bälle degustiert, sind aber von der Qualität dieses Weines mehr als überzeugt.

Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Deus Ex Machina AOC 2022
The Clos Saint Jean Deus ex machina 2022 is an iconic wine from the renowned Clos Saint Jean winery in the prestigious Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. The term "Deus ex machina", which means "God from the machine", symbolizes a turn for the better, the solution to a problem or simply the change in a situation due to something unforeseen. In this case, it was the arrival of oenologist Phillipe Cambie in 2003, who radically transformed the style of Clos Saint Jean into an even higher quality, more individual character and knew how to get the best out of the already brilliant terroir.The Deus ex machina comes from the La Crau vineyard in the north of the château, which is planted with Grenache vines over 100 years old. Accordingly, the cuvée consists of 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvedre. The wine is matured in stainless steel barrels and then aged in new oak.The Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Deus ex machina 2022 pleases the eye with a dark violet color. The nose smells of black cherries, truffles, new leather, violets and lots of herbs, smoke, with traces of cedar and some vanilla due to the use of new wood during the post-maturing process. The palate is highly intense, concentrated, yet very creamy and velvety, in an overall very opulent, yet fresh style. This is mirrored by the extremely long finish.A racy Châteauneuf-du-Pape with high expectations, which it more than fulfills. It will be ready to drink from around 2024-2028, with a very long life perspective.Robert Parker 98/100 ("strong candidate for best wine of the vintage"); Jeb Dunnuck 96/100.

Château La Nerthe Les Cassagnes Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge AOP
This Côtes du Rhône Villages AOP is an extraordinary wine. The team of the La Nerthe winery, which has been based in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape region since the 14th century, maintains the Les Cassagnes vineyards located in Sérignan-du-Comtat, France. The grapes for this wine are selected exclusively from the best parcels of land. The soil consists of sand, clay and limestone, providing natural filtration and creating full-bodied, well-balanced wines.The grapes come from vines with an average age of more than 40 years. This cuvée consists mainly of Grenache Noir, Shiraz and a smaller percentage of Mourvèdre.The grapes are harvested by hand and undergo a further selection process upon arrival in the cellar. Subsequently, the grape varieties are fermented separately for a period of three weeks. The extraction is carried out very carefully in order to maintain the fruit aromas and to preserve a good tannin structure. Before bottling, the wine finally matures for 9 months in stainless steel tanks, remaining in contact with the yeast.The Les Cassagnes AOP Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge is a deep, dark red in colour. On the palate, it impresses wine connoisseurs with an appealing body that’s not overly full, showing a very silky texture. Aromas of red berries, wonderful notes recalling perfume and sweet nuances of spices lead to an exquisite, prolonged finish.Served at a drinking temperature of 14-16°C (57.2-60.8 °F), the Les Cassagnes goes beautifully with grilled lamb or beef, pasta Bolognese or ratatouille. We recommend enjoying this wine with ‘Tian’, a vegetable gratin speciality from the Provence region, made of tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines, thyme and oregano. Simply delicious!

Château Saint-Roch Roubials Côtes Catalanes
Grenache grapes were harmoniously paired with about 10-20% Shiraz to create this wonderful cuvée from the province of Roussillon in the south of France. This wine was produced in the picturesque canton of La Vallée d’Agly near the little town of Maury, in which the tireless winemaker and owner of the estate, Jean-Marc Lafage, grew up and thus knows the terroir like the back of his hand.After he had taken over the vineyards in 2006, he created a wine from grapes that ripened on slate soils at an altitude of 140 metres. The sumptuous richness and warm texture of the Saint-Roch also result from Jean-Marc Lafage’s habit of waiting to harvest the grapes until they’ve reached maximum maturity, on the verge of being overripe. They are then picked by hand from 30-60-year-old vines, and the wine matures in tanks after a brief maceration. Subsequently, the Saint-Roch Roubials was aged for 11 months in 500-litre casks made of French oak, of which 20% were new barrels.It is thus no surprise that this wine from Southern France is vibrant and of great stature, and is often compared to Italian Amarone wines or the renowned Super Tuscans. The spicy and powerful Saint-Roche Roubials is a deep red in colour. On the nose, it is fresh and spicy, offering an abundance of fruit aromas such as black berries, liquorice, chocolate and plums. The wine is ample, inviting and juicy on the palate, showing a good, solid structure and a light sweetness. The finish is long, with soft and well-integrated tannins.The Saint-Roche Roubials is impressively full-bodied but not too strong. It is a perfect accompaniment to steaks, spicy meat loaf or grilled dishes. It is also a real insider’s tip to enjoy on a long winter evening in front of a fireplace.Robert Parker as well as the Wine Advocate award the Saint-Roch-Roubials 92 points (2016 vintage), whilst the 2017 vintage was awarded 92 points by Jeb Dunnuck.
