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

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

If Télégramme is more about fruit than stones, it is still undeniably Châteauneuf, expressing the nobility of carefully farmed Grenache from the Rhône’s finest terroirs.

It’s a gem, and you won’t be disappointed.

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

Truly classic Vieux Télégraphe, deep and powerful as usual, yet showing great finesse and class, almost an ethereal quality.

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

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

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

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