Bright, fresh and gourmand, this is a wine that invites you back with its great drinkability. This Côtes du Rhone stands out from the rest of the field owing to its seamless tannins and bright red fruit. Sommeliers have been known to serve it at room temperature or chilled, a versatile wine for all occasions.
Clos de Caveau is owned and operated by the Bungener family. Specifically, it's currently run by Henri Bungener, who took over from his father, Gérard Bungener. The estate has been in the Bungener family since 1976, but was formerly owned by Stephen Spurrier, who said “my one regret in life was selling Clos de Caveau”.
They have been practicing organic farming since 1989 (and have been certified for nearly as long) and have been true pioneers for the Vacqueyras appellation, with a privileged position at the top of the hill and just below the woods that cover the tops of the Dentelles de Montmirail. This lends incredible freshness to a region typically known for full bodied wines. Across the whites and reds there is a marked salinity and herbal quality which make them supremely versatile - we love the reds with Langres and other similar cheeses.
