Camille Cayran, Elegante 2020, Cru Cairanne

This bold, organic Rhône blend from Cairanne is a spice rack in a bottle, with four powerhouse grapes and zero sulfites. Perfect for cozy nights, barbecues, dishes with tomato sauce, or any other dinner that needs a little drama.

Tasting Notes: Deep red with a hint of purple, this rich Rhône blend bursts with black cherry, black currant, and warm spices like pepper, cinnamon, and licorice. The palate is full-bodied and smooth, with intense fruit and spice that build into a long, round finish. Made with organic grapes, no added sulfites, and a whole lot of character, this is a bold yet balanced red that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty sauces, or a chilly evening in.

Varietals: 40% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Carignan, 20% Mourvedre 

About the Winery: Created in 1929, Cave de Cairanne is situated in the heart of the Cru of the Meridional Vallee of the Rhône, in the Vaucluse region on the left bank of the Rhone. They are a cooperative cellar built on a human scale (a dozen winemakers produce 80% of the wines) whose ambition is to give birth to pleasurable wines with strong character. With grapes picked at maturity, drastic selection, and perfectly calibrated wine making, the cellar produces a grandiose series of wines, the best in their appellation.
