2003 Domaine du Caillou Côtes du Rhône - France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Côtes du Rhône (6/11/2006)
WIML90,NOWA,NOWS

Tasted June 11, 2006 at home. Opened and served immediately in a Spiegelau Authentis Magnum glass. Dusty rose color in the glass with a slightly dusty hue throughout. Nose was a little tight up front eventually showing some aromas of raspberries, blackberries and plums. Flavors of black cherries, red cherries, red berries and red currants. Later showed a little touch of coffee and some raspberries. Rounded tannins with a somewhat lively acidity. Drink over the short term. Based on the $19.54 per bottle I paid at local retail I’d say the value here is recommended. (90 pts.)
