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.

This Gigondas—densely concentrated and deeply opaque—is more refined than meets the eye.

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.

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

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

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

The blend is equal parts Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette. Together, they create a wine that has a complex mouth-feel that finishes with a nice refreshing acidity.

Dark-fruited, with fresh acidity and stony tannins, it’s about as versatile as reds come from the south of France.

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

We aimed for maximum drinkability: plenty of hedonistic purple-tinged fruit, along with a hint of wild herbs and lovely lavender and violet notes.
