Aromatic Sensations
On the nose, it's intriguing and decidedly spicy. The opening is dominated by fresh red and black fruit: blueberry, wild blackberry, and morello cherry. Its distinctive character immediately emerges: pungent notes of black pepper intertwine with an evocative mineral trace of flint and graphite, creating a complex and penetrating bouquet.
Taste-Olfactory Sensations
On the palate, it's vibrant and lively. The entry is juicy, supported by a freshness that lends great dynamism to the palate. It's an elegant and taut wine, with smooth yet present tannins. The finish is long and clean, with a consistent return of peppery and berry notes.
The Word of the Producer
A favorite son of the red soil of Sencelles, Callet is the essence of island finesse. A grape variety that doesn't shout, but whispers tales of wind and stone, transforming the arid landscape into a sip of vibrant and aristocratic Mediterranean elegance.
