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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.

May Club Rouge ~ This bears a rich bouquet of wild strawberry, flowers, garrigue, and sweet spices, culminating in a long, stony finale.
