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

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.

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.

Rich fruitiness on the palate recalls ripe strawberries, and then notes of spice and licorice kick in for a full-bodied, full-flavored finish that marries beautifully with ratatouille or smoked pork chops.

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

A pure Syrah bottling offering wild flavors of the Provençal countryside gently wrapped in a thick coat of tooth-staining deep purple 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.

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

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

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