Description
The Trois Cailloux by Idun is a classic Southern Rhone blend of Syrah/Mourvedre/Grenache that shows a deep ruby red with a violet rim. Aromas of ripe currants, forest floor and tea leaf caressed by the spicy flavours of white pepper and coriander. Complex concentrated fruits, medium bodied with dense but silky tannins.
Idun is a small, boutique winery run by a French-Danish family originating from Mauritius. They produce excellent varietals which are well-balanced, concentrated, and elegant. These are mightily impressive, French-inspired wines which you would be paying a lot more for if the grapes were from France.
The Idun Trois Cailloux is named after the famous ‘galet roules’ or pudding stones, that lie on many of the soils in Chateauneuf.
63% Syrah, 31% Mourvedre, 6% Grenache
