An abundance of violets and velvet, amid a cooling sensation of a cold spring on a hot day.

Grenache is joined by Syrah and a drop of Mourvèdre to create this delightful everyday red scented of herbes de Provence and ripe black cherry.

The palate is dense and ripe, yet wonderfully smooth and elegant. Racines seems to tap into the history of Les Pallières, the prestige and the high-toned elegance.

It’s a gem, and you won’t be disappointed.

The blend is equal parts Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette. Together, they create a wine that has a complex mouth-feel that finishes with a nice refreshing acidity.

Les Racines has a deep core of dark berry fruits, notes of licorice, or réglisse, and a concentrated texture that conveys power with silkiness.

Stony and smoky, and full of garrigue and black cherry, it is an epic wine that opens up wonderfully now.

Dark-fruited, with fresh acidity and stony tannins, it’s about as versatile as reds come from the south of France.

Elevation and abundant limestone combine to give taut, high-toned wines with delicate floral aromas and stimulating mineral freshness.

Violets and dark berries dominate the palate, with a pleasant wild side lurking below the surface.
