This is about as quaffable as the region’s rouges get.

This Gigondas—densely concentrated and deeply opaque—is more refined than meets the eye.

Brambly, rustic, savory, and joyous, this is as perfect a house red from the Rhône as you’ll find.

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.

Dark-fruited, with fresh acidity and stony tannins, it’s about as versatile as reds come from the south of France.

Black olive, fig, and rosemary abound in this easy-to-love, soulful southern Rhône red.

There’s a gentle veil of minerality, and the nose is expansive, making way for notes that are more spiced than fruity.

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

It beckons you to follow Maxime-François’s advice: “Drink it when you are very, very thirsty!”

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