THE STORY

About this wine

Grenache fruit in a rich, silky, expansive Châteauneuf-du-Pape red — dark cherry, garrigue and dried herbs on the nose, leather and spice on the palate. The 2023 Calypso, from Domaine Les Aricoques' Satellite collection.

Domaine Les Aricoques was founded in 2021 by lycée friends Romain Dupont and Guillaume Bellon. Calypso belongs to the Satellite collection, cuvées sourced beyond the estate while following the domaine’s shared philosophy; it is described by a retailer as a négoce cuvée.

Worth knowing

Saturn supplies the names. Each Satellite cuvée carries the name of one of Saturn's moons, Calypso among them, and the moon-names mark the collection's explorative bottlings made beyond the estate.

Tasting

Color: Red in the glass.
Nose: Dark cherry leads, with the garrigue and dried herbs behind it.
Palate: Rich and expansive from the start, silk-textured, leather and spice laid over dark cherry fruit. The savory herb notes of the nose carry all the way through.
