Product Notes

Domaine du Coulet's Cornas Brise Cailloux is an exquisite wine from Rhône Valley, France. With a robust, full-bodied character, this eloquently structured wine carries notes of dark berries accented with earthy undertones and warming spices. Mature ripened fruit and crystallised plum imbue it with vibrant richness, while its firm tannins offer a wonderfully pleasing back-bone. Layers of complexity unfold upon each sip, revealing hints of wild herbs and minerality. Brise Cailloux is a hearty red wine which adeptly demonstrates the richness of Syrah grape and is superb with roasts and stews. A truly remarkable choice for wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

The ‘Brise Cailloux’ has an expressive nose of eucalyptus, plush red fruits and fresh herbs, with flavours of juicy cherry and cranberry that burst onto the palate. This wine is fresh with a mouth-watering minerality, structured tannins and an elegant finish.
