Naturally elegant and refined, Crocodile Dandy is the new concept wine from Joseph Castan to blend the respect for the ancestral culture of South of France with the elegance and refinement of wine from Costieres de Nîmes. Costieres de Nimes is the most southerly appellation of the Rhone wine region in southeastern France. The vines lie at a crossroads of the Mediterranean warmth of the South and cool mistral winds from North. The round stones typical of the Rhone valley’s soil capture the sun’s heat during the cold nights and reflect the warmth back to the vines which improved ripeness and quality.
