Feeling globalist pressure against local varietals, winemakers in Fronton have tried to eradicate Negrette. The folks at Le Roc are fighting the good fight with this well-priced bottle Eric Asimov calls "...ripe, succulent, exotically fruity, delicious, easy drinking."
A dark-coloured Rose from Negrette and Syrah grapes with a richer palate than the typical Provence Rose. Anne Ribes is one of France's youngest winemakers!
Full bodied style of Muscadet with over a year of lees aging before release. Almond and toasty aromas highlight this wine that's great with fresh oysters.
A medium-bodied white with notes of candied citrus peel, lychee, and slightly overripe pineapple, and a medium acidity. Drink on its own or with leafy, grilled white meat dishes.
A nice aromatic wine, with notes of dried citrus peel, ginger, and tropical fruit. Acidic and light on alcohol, this wine has a freshness that makes it almost too crushable. Excellent pairing for creamy soups.
Funky and medium-bodied, with notes of strawberry and dry cranberry, a menthol-and-rosemary herbaceousness, and subtle tannins, this is a crushable cerasuolo-esque red that would pair perfectly with grilled veggie skewers.
A Catalan-influenced, biodynamic, old-vine blend of grenache gris and macabeu from the Rousillion. Light but concentrated. Sur lie aging for 12 to 18 months in oak, with skin contact maceration that gives its flinty, acid-driven structure a honeyed, orange-zested, chamomile flavor profile.
Thomas Pico is one of Chablis' best producers. The wines, when not destroyed by hail, are treasures of impeccable quality that drink very well young and will reward patient aging.
