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

Brambly, rustic, savory, and joyous, this is as perfect a house red from the Rhône as you’ll find.

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

This is about as quaffable as the region’s rouges get.

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

Leydiers at Domaine de Durban are particularly proud of their Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, a vin doux naturel, as they are among the last to craft it in the traditional style.

This festive sparkling wine is vinified following the ancient tradition of one of the most gorgeous corners of France, where small hills grow into small mountains on the flanks of the Alps.

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

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

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