The name Caillou refers to pebbles, reflecting the fact that this was once riverbed, when the river Garonne overflowed millions of years ago. The characteristic elegance and finesse of this wine is attributed to its free-draining, gravelly soil and subsoil. Lovely, gentle grassiness and wet-stone minerality, with enough weight to give this real substance. A great example of white Bordeaux wine. - Winemaker Notes

"This vineyard, an oasis in the urban sprawl of Bordeaux, has produced a classic wine. With beautifully textured fruit cut with a zing of citrus and underlined by the wood aging, the wine is set to age. Drink this harmonious wine from 2023."

"Mineral and serious white with aromas of dried apples, lemons, dried jasmine, anise, cedar and crushed almonds. It’s medium-bodied with tangy acidity and a vibrant, energetic palate. Spicy and tangy and full of flavor."
