January 5, 2023 - Just singing. We tried hard to come up with a high toned fruit desciptor; it wasn’t possible ; it’s its own unique fruit flavor, far from fruity but just getting better and better in the glass,
great mid palate and length.1 person found this helpful Comment -

February 17, 2020 - Pure, clean nose of raspberry with a hint of eucalyptus. Vibrant red color, surprising for a 20-year-old wine. Velvety, beautifully integrated fruit and tannin. Just flat-out delicious. No sign of decline; I would guess at least 10 more years of peak drinking.

February 12, 2018 - Not mature yet by any means but not closed down either and nicely showcasing the richness of the 1999 vintage. If your idea of Cailles is the lighter, more elegant wine in the Chevillon lineup, this will confound it. This is thick, dense stuff with quite the heavy footprint. Not that you would confuse it for Vaucrains or anything - the texture is still friendly. Dark plummy fruit gives way to lots of gravel and earthiness on the back end after it's had time to breathe.
