2018 Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Rouge

Domaine de Durban
Discount Eligible $14.00
SOLD OUT

Treat this smooth, juicy red as you would a Côtes du Rhône. After all, the grapes—mostly Grenache and Syrah—come from the heart of the southern Rhône, where they are pampered by Mediterranean sunshine and sublimated by fresh breezes filled with herbal scents of the garrigue. One of our best deals from France, the Vaucluse rouge is especially gulpable in the 2018 vintage: opportune rains yielded a less powerful wine than in other years and instead bestowed a tender floral character that is seriously hard to resist.

Old wine bottles

Let the brett nerds retire into protective bubbles, and whenever they thirst for wine it can be passed in to them through a sterile filter. Those of us on the outside can continue to enjoy complex, natural, living wines.
