2022 Tavel “La Combe des Rieu”

I buckled a bit under the charm of this glowing, dark rosé. Petit’s Tavel is a heartbreaker, the kind of soulful wine that tastes almost fragile, as if one sip would shatter its weightless structure. But then it lingers, floats across your palate, hums a tune, and slakes your thirst.
—Jane Augustine

Let the brett nerds retire into protective bubbles, and whenever they thirst for wine it can be passed in to them through a sterile filter. Those of us on the outside can continue to enjoy complex, natural, living wines.

Promo Code Terms
There are two types of promo codes

How do promo codes or coupon codes work?
When you place an order with a percentage coupon code, the discount only applies to discount eligible items. An eligible item typically is a product that does not already have a discount.

When you place an order with a dollar amount code, the dollar amount is added to your discount. In your shopping cart, the dollar amount is subtracted from your total, and does not show next to each bottle.
