There’s a gentle veil of minerality, and the nose is expansive, making way for notes that are more spiced than fruity.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.
