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.

If Télégramme is more about fruit than stones, it is still undeniably Châteauneuf, expressing the nobility of carefully farmed Grenache from the Rhône’s finest terroirs.

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

It is important to remember the heights that old-vine Grenache can reach when planted on arid, stony plateaus in the shadows of Mount Ventoux.

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

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

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

The majesty of the La Crau vineyard is encapsulated in this wine. I can't think of a grander expression of Southern Rhone terroir.

Just in the mood for a splash of red? A half-bottle of perfectly mature VT will transform the occasion!

A dry sparkler made exclusively from Clairette.
