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.

Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.

This bears a rich bouquet of wild strawberry, flowers, garrigue, and sweet spices, culminating in a long, stony finale.

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

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

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.

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

A fresh, pure entry point to the Rhône’s great reds with aromas and flavors of black cherries, stones, and a hint of black olive.

A relatively rare beast, Serge’s blanc is a ripe, honey-infused cornucopia of fruit.

A pure Syrah bottling offering wild flavors of the Provençal countryside gently wrapped in a thick coat of tooth-staining deep purple fruit.
