Le Clos des Cazaux Gigondas 750ml 2021

$48.00

Founded in 1905 by Gabriel Archimbaud, Domaine Clos de Cazaux is now run by his grandsons Jean-Michel and Frédéric Vache.

The Vache and Archimbaud families are amongst the oldest families in the village of Vacqueyras, with their names appearing in the earliest existing clerical registers. The oldest part of the property dates back to the 12th century and belonged to the Knights Templar. At this time a local farmer was put in charge of rearing the livestock and cultivating the land on behalf of the Knights Templar. This farmer was called “Chasal”, a name which over the years became “Cazaux”, the current name of the domaine.

The wine is full of rich and powerful red and black fruit aromas. The integration of a silky tannin and firm acidity make the wine velvety smooth with a long finish!
