The Wine
The cuvee is characterised by hints of floral and exotic fruits. The 2018 vintage with relatively fresh temperatures during the harvest season allowed an optimal maturation of the Roussanne and Clairette grapes. This wine combines body and freshness and is a perfect partner for the aperitive.
The Brunel Estate of Les Cailloux at Chemin du Bois de la Ville was established in 1919 and is named after the famous galet roulés (large stones) found in the vineyards of Châteauneuf. The Brunel family has lived in the area since the 18th century, although André's grandfather was the first in the family to turn his hand to winemaking and the tradition has continued since. André joined his father in 1971 and during his career as a Vigneron has turned Les Cailloux into a world-class domaine.
