Producers
Domaine La Tour Vieille
France | Languedoc-Roussillon
Evaporation over time has concentrated the wine, giving it considerable strength to go with its trademark rancio aromas of walnuts and brine.
Selected by Kermit Lynch
France | Southern Rhône
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.
Domaine de Durban
France | Southern Rhône | Gigondas
Durban does here what they do best, keeping the focus and precision of the terroir as well as loads of fruit and pleasure.

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.

France | Southern Rhône | Vacqueyras
This old-vines bottling is all about smoky garrigue, dense black fruit, taut leather, chewy tannins, and stones.

If you can’t make it to the south of France this year, here’s a way to bring the Mediterranean sun to you.

This unfiltered bottling from the excellent 2020 vintage—a more classic, sun-filled year than that fateful 2002—is one of the best editions to date.

At once robust, succulent, and elegant, this red offers immediate pleasure and age-worthy promise.
