The Old World Old Vine CollectionWines that are made from old vines (vines that are 25 years + and older) are a tribute to the growers love of the land. They reflect the terroir, landscape, and people who lovingly tend these vineyards. The advantage of having very old vines is that they concentrate the aromas & flavours because the vine produces fewer grapes and focuses all its energy just on these. For many years wine growers didnt keep old vines because they do not produce enough

Wines that are made from old vines (vines that are 25 years + and older) are a tribute to the grower’s love of the land. They reflect the terroir, landscape, and people who lovingly tend these vineyards.

The advantage of having very old vines is that they concentrate the aromas & flavours because the vine produces fewer grapes and focuses all its energy just on these. For many years wine growers didn’t keep old vines because they do not produce enough and they need you to take more care of them as they are very fragile. However this is changing and old vines are now seen as a treasure.

The collection below is a great example of the new found love of old vines, we hope you enjoy them.

Collection includes:

2 x Calmel & Joseph Vieux Carignan ' La Fabrique' 2022 (France)

100 Year Old Vines

AWARDED 94/100 POINTS: The Tasting Panel Magazine Sept/October 2022

"Gnarly 100 year old Carignan vines produce this beauty.  Dark purple with soaring aromas of boysenberry, leather and flowers.  Rich and robust, but with smooth rounded tannins.  An absolute joy!" Wine Direct Tasting Panel

A dense, deep violet with inky black reflections. The nose is classically old Carignan with its aromas of fresh strawberry and grape followed by more intense notes of blackberry, black fig, and laurel but also green peppercorns. The tannins are well rounded, fine, very elegant, and persistent. In the mouth we find an exemplary 100% Carignan from vines planted in 1895 – a real “old Carignan” – with its fabulous red fruit, wonderful freshness, and rich texture full of juicy gariguette strawberries, white flowers, and exotic, spicy notes. This exceptional parcel selection is the expression of a superb altitude terroir that offers a superb vivacity characteristic of Carignan in counterpoint to the intense power of this emblematic Mediterranean variety. Certified Organic.

"Offering fruit purity as well as elegant complexity, the wine shows dark plum, raspberry, floral and olive notes on the nose, followed by a brightly expressed palate offering silky flow and delicate tannins. Juicy and refreshing, making it splendidly appealing. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

2 x Villa Blanche 'Les cepages anciens' Piquepoul Noir 2021 (France)

35 Year Old Vines

AWARDED 16/20 POINTS: Jancis Robinson

Laurent Calmel and Jerome Joseph continue their quest to bring the great and unique grapes of Languedoc-Roussillon to a wider audience with this silken, black fruit-laden and spice-edged wonder. Dark, ruby colour, the nose is fresh with aromas of ripe red cherry and berry fruit along with notes of dark raspberries, and a blend of spices, florals and liquorice.  Medium-bodied, the palate has soft and gently rich character, vibrant fruit flavours of red cherries and berries with savoury spice, herb and floral touches.  This is really lovely and gluggable , the fruit is sweet and juicy, and is underlined by balancing fresh acidity.  A great alternative to the 'heavier' wines of the region, this is all about elegance and balance. You could say it is 'light on its feet'!

Astonishingly good and as rare as hen's teeth (maybe that's the chicken bit explained!). At the end of the last century there was thought to be only 200 hectares left globally. And that's despite the fact this is one of the just 18 varieties allowed to be used in Chateauneuf-du-Pape!

Relief for dry mouth without gum irritation
Big improvement for users with sensitive gums. These relieve dry mouth during the night almost as well as the regular tabs. Some complained about a residual gel left on the gums. 🙄Just wipe it off. It’s a small thing.

This version doesn’t work
I used these 2 nights in a row. I was hoping Oracoat found a solution to the problem people like me have with the regular Xylimelts: irritation of gums. As others have noted the “sensitive” version doesn’t melt and the goo that remains can be difficult to remove. I didn’t have too much trouble after the first night. However, the second day after use, it was so hard to get the remains out, I wound up with a very sore spot from digging it out. I will toss the rest. It’s too bad this effort fizzled. I hope Oracoat will find a solution For sensitive mouths. In the b meantime, I will use the original for a few nights and then stop before repeating. The idea behind the original product is fantastic. Unfortunately this attempt to make it usable for people with sensitive mouths hasn’t worked. Please try again.

An improvement over the original product, but could be better
I had used the original Xylimelts a few years back for my night time very dry mouth. They worked very well, completely dissolving overnight, but they caused sores inside my cheeks. Recently I discovered this new version which was purported to be made without the offending ingredients. They don't work quite as well, as they don't completely dissolve, but so far haven't caused any irritation. My mouth isn't completely parched as it was without any product, so it is definitely better than nothing. There is a gel-like residue in the morning that needs to be scraped off the teeth. I think Oracoat has some more R & D to do.
