2022 Vacqueyras Rouge “Cuvée de Lopy”
Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Hailing from the family’s oldest vines, this bottling takes the depth, soul, and structure of Floureto up a level. Stony and smoky, and full of garrigue and black cherry, it is an epic wine that opens up wonderfully now, after a decant and alongside a ribeye, but will also evolve beautifully over the next ten years.

France | Southern Rhône
A pure Syrah bottling offering wild flavors of the Provençal countryside gently wrapped in a thick coat of tooth-staining deep purple fruit.

France | Southern Rhône
Clos La Roquète’s blanc is luscious, yet finishes nice and dry with striking acidity.

France | Southern Rhône
A relatively rare beast, Serge’s blanc is a ripe, honey-infused cornucopia of fruit.

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.
