Cuvee des Galets VDP Rhone
With a focus on sustainable agriculture, low yields, and small batch vinification, Estézargues is one of the most modern and progressive co-ops in the Southern Rhône. Named after the small, round stones (galets) that are abundant in Estézargues's vineyards, this intense, medium-bodied red offers cassis and blueberry aromas, with light spice and mineral notes.
Chateau Valcombe Ventoux Rosé
The vineyard "Château Valcombe" covers 28 hectares and is situated in the foothills of Mont Ventoux in Southern Rhone. The grapes are sourced from North facing vineyards from vines averaging 60 years of age. This wine is vibrant, mineral, complex and well balanced. Fantastic value.
Winemaking Details: Natural yeast, low sulfur
Burle Cotes Du Rhone
Ripe red and black fruit courtesy of the grenache,violets with hints of stone courtesy of the syrah, gentle acidity mid palate, then a structured finish.
Domaine Rouge Bleu Dentelle
The grapes for this cuvée comes from the old vines located at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail which is a mountain range that defines Southern Rhone vineyards. The wine is fresh and juicy, cherry and blackcurrant flavors on the nose, slightly smoked.
Domaine Rouge Bleu Mistral
Mistral is a local name for the fierce dry winds that blow through Rhone Valley. It is responsible for region's climatic characteristics. This wine is made from old vines and is an ode to the best reds of the Rhone with a deep purple color and aromas of dark red fruits and notes of spice. The palate is mouthfilling and intense without heaviness but plenty of the fat and concentration one would expect from old Rhone varieties. The finish has long-lasting flavors of red fruits.
La Souteronne
Heve Souchart created this domaine in 1993, five hectares of old and ancient vines, between 50 and 100 years old. A gamay from the Northern Rhone: buoyant black fruit dominates the palate followed by smoky minerality. Great.
Souhaut Syrah
Herve Souhaut created this domaine in 1993, 5 hectares of old and ancient vines, between 50 and 100 years old. This syrah is made from 30 year old vines. Very pronounced nose - violets, a bit of coffee, bacon fat, black cherry and wet stone minerality. While the aromas are repeated on the palate, vibrant fruit flavors dominate and leads to a soft tannic finish. Winemaking Details: Unfiltered, Low SO2 Added
Domaine Les Aphillantes Cairanne L'Ancstral Du Puits
A great choice when looking for a Southern Rhone red, this wine is better than most of the Chateauneuf-du-Pape out there. Rich, ripe fruit, dried herbs, ripe cranberry, this is great stuff!
Domaine Monpertuis Chateauneuf du Pape
A great, balanced, delicious Chateauneuf which is drinking surprisingly well right now. Rich red fruits, a hint of minerality and a touch of dried herbs. Another great wine from our friends at Rosenthal.
Domaine Monpertuis Chateauneuf du Pape
A great, balanced, delicious Chateauneuf which is in its prime. Rich red fruits, a hint of minerality and a touch of dried herbs, all knit together with secondary elements of earth and game. This wine says holiday dinner party!
