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

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.

Leydiers at Domaine de Durban are particularly proud of their Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, a vin doux naturel, as they are among the last to craft it in the traditional style.

A dry sparkler made exclusively from Clairette.

Fragrant aromas of lavender and garrigue, notes of perfectly ripe black cherries, hints of black olive and stones.

If there were a Hall of Fame for French bistro reds, Poignée would be a first-ballot inductee—vibrant and classy, it’s the southern France counterpart to our favorite Morgons.

Stony and smoky, and full of garrigue and black cherry, it is an epic wine that opens up wonderfully now.

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

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

Another delectable wine from the Brunier family, with a complex mouth-feel that finishes with refreshing acidity.
