NEW WINES FROM CAVE DE CAIRANNE
We are excited to introduce the wines of the Cave de Cairanne to Direct Wine Shipments.
Created in 1929, the Cave de Cairanne winery has built its reputation and recognition on its experience and exceptional winemaking. The cellar is situated in the heart of the Cru of the Meridional Vallee of the Rhône, in the Vaucluse region on the left bank of the Rhone. It is near the star appellations of Chateauneuf du Pape, Gigondas and Vacqueyras.
Camille Cayran knowhow is the story of a small group of devoted wine- makers who work hand in hand with a technical team to create highly expressive wines.
“We encourage work in the soil and on the vine as much in traditional production as in organic production. Careful work is a prerequisite of exceptional wines.”
