Grenache is joined by Syrah and a drop of Mourvèdre to create this delightful everyday red scented of herbes de Provence and ripe black cherry.

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

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

If Télégramme is more about fruit than stones, it is still undeniably Châteauneuf, expressing the nobility of carefully farmed Grenache from the Rhône’s finest terroirs.

Clos La Roquète’s blanc is luscious, yet finishes nice and dry with striking acidity.

The complexity and depth of this wine is driven by the 60-80 year old Grenache vines reaching deep down into the clay and limestone soils.

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.

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

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

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