2019 Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc “Pantomine”
Maxime François Laurent
This new white to the lineup, a marriage of Bourboulenc and Grenache Blanc, clocks in at a refreshing 12.5% alcohol. You’ll find the classic perfume of a good southern Rhône white, including stone fruit, hay, and fragrant mimosa blossoms. With no rough edges, it beckons you to follow Maxime-François’s advice: “Drink it when you are very, very thirsty!”

France | Southern Rhône
Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.

2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape “Télégramme”

France | Southern Rhône

France | Southern Rhône
At once robust, succulent, and elegant, this red offers immediate pleasure and age-worthy promise.

2020 Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise HALF BOTTLE

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.

France | Southern Rhône
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.
