Clairette de Die “Tradition”
Domaine Achard-Vincent
At seven degrees alcohol, the Tradition is made with Muscat and Clairette grapes. It is vinified following the ancient local tradition. It is a festive wine. You coulda watched the Super Bowl with it, some popcorn (tossed with olive oil, salt, and dried thyme), and your pals.

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

2023 Côtes-du-Rhône Rouge “Il Fait Soif”
France | Southern Rhône
This thirst-quenching, bright, and plummy red is enhanced with a little bit of chill and perfect for grillables.

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

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

Elevation and abundant limestone combine to give taut, high-toned wines with delicate floral aromas and stimulating mineral freshness.

Intense in both color and character, the most dense and vinous I can ever remember from this cuvée.

Grenache is joined by Syrah and a drop of Mourvèdre to create this delightful everyday red scented with herbes de Provence and ripe black cherry.

A dry sparkler made exclusively from Clairette.

Trust the great winemakers, trust the great vineyards. Your wine merchant might even be trustworthy. In the long run, that vintage strip may be the least important guide to quality on your bottle of wine.—Kermit Lynch
