Ballon Rouge is a welcoming red from the sunny southern Rhône, born from the organic vineyards around Grospierres where Cros des Calades brings a light, expressive style to everyday drinking. A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a wine that captures the spirit of its land — generous fruit framed by gentle spice and a lively, drink-anytime charm.
In the glass it greets you with a shimmering ruby hue and aromas of crisp red cherries, wild raspberries and just-picked brambles, lifted by a hint of Mediterranean herbs and pepper. The palate is juicy and approachable, where bright, juicy fruit flows into soft tannins and a subtle spicy finish that leaves you reaching for another sip.
Ballon Rouge is a wine for shared moments easy, honest and full of character and it’s a vibrant expression of southern Rhône joy that feels both relaxed and delicious.
