2023 Vacqueyras Rouge “ Doucinello”
Domaine Le Sang des Cailloux
Named for Serge’s daughter, this red effectively showcases that fresh wine doesn’t just mean fresh fruit notes. The flavors are mostly deep and dark—stones, licorice, black olive, and blackberry—but the frame is lithe, yielding a mesmerizing yin and yang.
—Tom Wolf

2023 Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Rouge

France | Southern Rhône
This dark, autumnal rosé is a beacon of tradition in a sea of paler styles.

2023 Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Blanc “Le Pigeoulet”
France | Southern Rhône
The blend is equal parts Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette. Together, they create a wine that has a complex mouth-feel that finishes with a nice refreshing acidity.
