The Caladoc grape variety is a cross between the Grenache (Grenache) and Malbec grape varieties. It was developed at the National Institute for Agricultural Research in Montpellier, in France, with the aim of combining the qualities of both varieties.
Caladoc grapes are medium to large, with a thick, bluish-black skin. They are known for their resistance to diseases and their adaptability to different climatic conditions. This variety is particularly popular in the south of France, where it is grown in wine regions such as Languedoc-Roussillon.
Wines made from Caladoc grapes are usually deep red in color, with fruity and spicy aromas. They can present notes of black fruits, such as blackberries and plums, as well as hints of spices such as pepper and licorice. On the palate, these wines are usually medium to full bodied, with soft tannins and balanced acidity.
The Caladoc grape variety is used primarily to produce red wines, although it can also be found in rosé wines. It is used both in monovarietal wines and in blends, providing structure, color and complexity to the wines.
In summary, the Caladoc grape variety is a cross between Grenache and Malbec, known for producing red wines with intense color, fruity and spicy aromas, and medium to full body. Its versatility and distinctive character make it an interesting option for wine lovers.
Red wines made from the Caladoc grape variety pair beautifully with a variety of dishes. Thanks to their balance and fruity and spicy character, they are ideal to accompany grilled or roasted red meats, such as beef steaks, lamb chops or pork ribs. Its structure and soft tannins are complemented by the intense and juicy flavors of the meat, creating a harmonious and delicious pairing.
In addition, Caladoc wines are well suited to game dishes, such as venison or wild boar, as their body and robust character enrich the intense, earthy flavors of game meat, highlighting its complexity and offering a satisfying gastronomic experience.
These wines are also enjoyed with Mediterranean dishes, such as stews, stews, and pasta with tomato sauce. Its fruity and spicy profile complements the typical ingredients and flavors of these dishes, adding depth and complexity.
In addition, Caladoc wines are an excellent choice to pair with mature and cured cheeses, as their structure and balanced character are balanced by the intense and fatty flavors of the cheese.
In short, Caladoc red wines go well with red meat, game dishes, Mediterranean cuisine, and mature cheeses. Their balance, structure, and fruity and spicy flavor profile make them a versatile and pleasing choice to enjoy with a variety of dishes and dining occasions.
