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

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

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

Rich fruitiness on the palate recalls ripe strawberries, and then notes of spice and licorice kick in for a full-bodied, full-flavored finish that marries beautifully with ratatouille or smoked pork chops.

This is about as quaffable as the region’s rouges get.

The flavors are mostly deep and dark—stones, licorice, black olive, and blackberry—but the frame is lithe.

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

Black olive, fig, and rosemary abound in this easy-to-love, soulful southern Rhône red.

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

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