The 2022 vintage drinks like something even more ethereal than you’d expect from a southern red.

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

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

Fragrant aromas of lavender and garrigue, notes of perfectly ripe black cherries, hints of black olive and stones.

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

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

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

An abundance of violets and velvet, amid a cooling sensation of a cold spring on a hot day.

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

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