Vin de Pays de Vaucluse: Le Petit Caboche 2010

Our old friend Jean-Pierre Boisson, long-serving mayor of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, now ably assisted by his daughter Emilie, makes this great value Vin de Pays de Vaucluse called 'Petit Caboche' that is bursting with their signature ripe, red fruit flavours and is a versatile partner to all manner of rustic dishes - a kitchen table red if you will.

What others think of this wine...

Simon Hoggart - Spectator Wine, February 2012 says:

The Petit Caboche from the Vaucluse is packed with fruit and spices, and was a huge hit at the informal tasting I held with friends and neighbours. It's a smooth, outgoing wine (sorry, makes it sound like Roger Moore) made from 100 per cent Grenache... A very stylish wine and a very satisfying one too in these cold, dreeky months.
