2021 Tavel Rosé HALF BOTTLE
Château de Trinquevedel
More than any other rosé (or red) in our book, Trinquevedel’s Tavel is reminiscent of the divine freshness of a wild-harvested summer strawberry. Like the berries you might want to spoon atop a heaping pile of barely sweetened whipped cream, this rosé will be the star of, and finishing touch to, any meal.

France | Southern Rhône
This Gigondas—densely concentrated and deeply opaque—is more refined than meets the eye.
2023 Vacqueyras Rouge “Doucinello”

2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape “La Crau”

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

I want you to realize once and for all: Even the winemaker does not know what aging is going to do to a new vintage; Robert Parker does not know; I do not know. We all make educated (hopefully) guesses about what the future will bring, but guesses they are. And one of the pleasures of a wine cellar is the opportunity it provides for you to witness the evolution of your various selections. Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
