Beautiful cherry red colour, very dense, reflecting a young and concentrated wine. The nose is marked by red fruits (candied cherry, strawberry and raspberry jam, blackberry), violet and liquorice. In the mouth, a beautiful, concentrated, rich and complex structure. The finish is peacock-tailed, long and generous, with pleasantly round tannins. Founded in 1929, the Cairanne cooperative is a major player in the region with its two flagship brands, Camille Cayran for the traditional network and Victor Delauze for mass distribution. In 2020, it merged with the Cave de Sainte Cécile-les-Vignes and became Cave de Cairanne Camille & Cécilia. It now covers more than 1,100 ha and is expanding its offering with an organic range.
