Bright notes of fresh red berries, peaches, and assorted citrus are balanced by a spicy and soulful Mourvèdre character, yielding an excellent food wine.

One of five or six most outstanding dry whites of the Mediterranean rim, vintage after vintage and worth every centime!

Made mostly from Syrah—with a splash of Grenache, Mourvèdre, Carignan, and Cinsault—this cuvée is all about the terroir. Along with soulful, dark fruit, you can taste the stoniness in the wine. Cool it down, decant it in any kind of vase you have handy, and serve it the next time you fire up your grill.

Tasting the bottle, one quickly sees winemaker Cyriaque Rozier’s statement that Malvasia has “acclimated perfectly to the land of La Roque” is not an overstatement.

Thanks to the vines’ elevation and crucial cool nighttime temperatures, her blend of Marsanne, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Clairette, and Viognier delivers plenty of character and refreshment.

Decades ago, Isabelle and Matthieu planted Mourvèdre on southeast-facing terraces, using cuttings from exceptional Bandol vineyards, forming them into stumpy, gobelet-trained vines. Today, Noémie treats them with the reverence they deserve and crafts a robust, soulful, and exquisite rouge with notes of dark fruit, spice, and leather.

You will be surprised how well this dessert wine will pair with toasted almonds, bleu cheese or nice dark chocolate.

Savory and floral, with bright accents of orange zest, it soars over the palate with grace and finishes with a freshness reminiscent of cool stone.

Earthy, meaty, savory, juicy, and powerful, it is a glassful of joyful, soulful goodness.

Decades ago, Isabelle and Matthieu planted a little bit of Cabernet Franc as a curiosity more than anything else, but Kermit liked it so much we’ve imported it ever since.
