\u00a314.50<\/strong> or just \u00a312.95<\/strong> case price<\/p>\n

<\/em>Romain’s 2011 Carianne<\/strong> is a prime example; a blend of 70% Grenache<\/strong> and 30% Syrah<\/strong> that’s aged 80% in tank and 20% in Barrique, it offers a splendid bouquet of black raspberries, liquorice, white chocolate and lead pencil shavings delivered in a medium to full-bodied style. It is almost creamy in its seamlessness and will definitely keep you warm throughout this chilly spring with a rounded 15% ABV.<\/p>\n

What the critics say:<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘The 2011 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Cairanne (70% Grenache and 30% Syrah) is a dense, rich, full-bodied, impressively constituted effort. This is a sensational new estate I discovered by while tasting through offerings from Philippe Cambie\u2019s 74 different clients.<\/em>‘ Robert Parker<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘More fresh and elegant than you would expect give the ripeness and intensity on the nose, it never seems heavy or cumbersome and has solid length on the finish. Impressive all around, it should be enjoyed over the coming 3-4 years.<\/em>‘ (The Rhone Report<\/strong> – 91 Pts)<\/p>\n

\n

\"Les<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The terroir:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Romain is lucky in that he is able to rent some of his father’s best-placed vines, and assemble a wine from the principle terroirs of Cairanne – white limestone on the edge of the mountain to the north of the village, which is particularly good for his Syrah, ferrous clay and stones and sandy clay in the garrigue to the west, where bush-vine Grenache (up to 120 years old) is grown on arid soils.<\/p>\n

The village and the region:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Cairannes<\/p>\n

Le village de Cairanne<\/em><\/p>\n

Cairanne<\/b> (Occitan: Cairana<\/i>) is a commune in the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-C\u00f4te d’Azur region in southeastern France whose inhabitants were locally nicknamed leis afrontaires de Cairana<\/i>, ‘the cheeky ones from Cairanne’.<\/p>\n

\"2011<\/div>\n

The village is situated on the southern C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne wine route with the designation C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne Villages AOC. Other notable wine villages nearby are Gigondas, Rasteau, Seguret, Sablet, Beaumes de Venise, Vacqueyras.<\/p>\n
