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.

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.

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

This thirst-quenching, bright, and plummy red is enhanced with a little bit of chill and perfect for grillables.

If there were a Hall of Fame for French bistro reds, Poignée would be a first-ballot inductee—vibrant and classy, it’s the southern France counterpart to our favorite Morgons.

Another delectable wine from the Brunier family, with a complex mouth-feel that finishes with refreshing acidity.

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.

The 2022 vintage drinks like something even more ethereal than you’d expect from a southern red.
