It has a bright yellow color and a nuanced and savory nose, with abundant bubbles and a salty twist in the finish.

Aardse toon met wat stro en gras, toast, gebrande hazelnoot en gekarameliseerde appel. Intens, diep en lang. Van xarel.lo en macabeo met 67 maanden rijping. Succes bij coquilles met beurre noisette.

It has some toasty and yeasty notes and the classical aromas of aged sparkling wines from the zone—balsamic and Mediterranean with hints of camphor and fennel.
A bright, fresh and seductive white with aromas of green pears, green apples and blanched almonds. Medium-bodied with a fresh and crunchy character on the palate. Vivid and charming.

The 2023 Cotes du Rhone Le Caillou Blanc exhales a fresh bouquet of pear, herbs and verbena. Moderately weighted, it's juicy and gourmand with a fresh, mouthwatering finish.
