We aimed for maximum drinkability: plenty of hedonistic purple-tinged fruit, along with a hint of wild herbs and lovely lavender and violet notes.

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.

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

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

La Sagesse carries the full flavor, succulence, and savoriness we associate with Grenache on a graceful and lively frame.

This dark, autumnal rosé is a beacon of tradition in a sea of paler styles.

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.

Deep, dynamic Grenache feels aptly highlighted by bright and fresh Clairette. Soft and rich, yet still defined.

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

Perfect for those who enjoy delicacy and finesse in their Châteauneuf.
