Calmel & Joseph Les Elmes
Lovers of great Grenache will be in their element
This new Cuvée Rare, with its stunning ruby red colour, comes from the exceptionally austere coastal terroir of Collioure. The nose is intense but not ostentatious, laden with red fruit, laurel, star anise and notes of humous. The palate opens incisively with bold, concentrated tannins, offering up juicy cherry, fragrant aniseed and dill, and a lovely menthol finish. This is a challenging terroir that does not give up its treasures easily, but which produces some of the most spectacular wines in the Roussillon when all the stars are aligned.
