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

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.

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

This lovely Muscat is full of fresh honeysuckle and ripe citrus fruit.

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.

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.

Serve this one cool, from a carafe, with a plain old burger—generously seasoned with herbes de Provence.

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

The Férigoules have honed a unique style of Vacqueyras that mixes deep, dark color with a lightness of touch, rusticity with warmth, and minerality with delicious fresh fruit.

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