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

Violets and dark berries dominate the palate, with a pleasant wild side lurking below the surface.

Hailing from a parcel of co-planted vines adjacent to the family home, these varieties were planted together with the express purpose of making the house rouge, the everyday vibrant and juicy drink you’d bring to the table in a jug and drink out of a cup.

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

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.

This dark, autumnal rosé is a beacon of tradition in a sea of paler styles.

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

Serve this one cool, from a carafe, with a plain old burger—generously seasoned with herbes de Provence.

This thirst-quenching, bright, and plummy red is enhanced with a little bit of chill and perfect for grillables.

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