Fragrant aromas of lavender and garrigue, notes of perfectly ripe black cherries, hints of black olive and stones.

Full-bodied yet delicate, infused with the joie de vivre of the south of France.

The flavors are mostly deep and dark—stones, licorice, black olive, and blackberry—but the frame is lithe.

Clairette, an unsung hero of the south, is the main grape here, undoubtedly one of many key elements to this singular wine.

The Férigoules have honed a unique style of Vacqueyras that mixes deep, dark color with a lightness of touch, rusticity with warmth, and minerality with delicious fresh fruit.

It is important to remember the heights that old-vine Grenache can reach when planted on arid, stony plateaus in the shadows of Mount Ventoux.

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

Leydiers at Domaine de Durban are particularly proud of their Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, a vin doux naturel, as they are among the last to craft it in the traditional style.

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.

This festive sparkling wine is vinified following the ancient tradition of one of the most gorgeous corners of France, where small hills grow into small mountains on the flanks of the Alps.
