Clos de Caillou, Chateauneuf-du-Pape Tradition , 2022
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
If you want real-deal Châteauneuf without dropping major bucks, Clos du Caillou’s “Tradition” is pretty much the dream. It brings all the rich, spicy, sun-drenched Rhône vibes you love—without needing a special occasion to justify pulling the cork.
The 2022 blends mostly Grenache with a little Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault, all from organic vineyards just outside the famed walled village. It’s juicy and inviting right out of the gate—plush red berries, sweet spices, wild herbs, and that warm, stony backbone that only the Southern Rhône can deliver.
Drink it young for its juicy swagger, or stash a few bottles to watch it gain even more savory complexity over the next 5–10 years. Either way, it’s a killer value from one of Châteauneuf’s most beloved producers.
Perfect for: hearty pastas, roast lamb, Sunday dinners, or just leveling up your weeknight wine game.
