Clairette, an unsung hero of the south, is the main grape here, undoubtedly one of many key elements to this singular wine.

February Club Rouge ~ The flavors are mostly deep and dark—stones, licorice, black olive, and blackberry—but the frame is lithe.

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.

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

Elevation and abundant limestone combine to give taut, high-toned wines with delicate floral aromas and stimulating mineral freshness.

Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.

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

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.

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

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