Staff Pick Notes

Domain du Bagnol has practiced organic viniculture since 2014.The limestone and calcareous soil give this delicious rosé a great structure. It's a blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, and 20% Mourvedre. These grapes blend very well together giving a very well balanced, aromatic wine. You can enjoy, on the palate, citrus and stone fruit flavors such as peach, a bright acidity, and a very intriguing salinity in the finish. This wine can be paired with the traditional Provence cuisine like ratatouille, but if you are not in the mood to spend too much time in the kitchen, you can just pair it with cold cuts or roasted chicken. Enjoy!

For years, this naturally high-yielding grape suffered from overproduction, but New World winemakers have lately taken up the Carignan cause and produced some distinctive and delicious examples. Now that it is subject to...

Provence

Provence has some of the best vine-growing territory in the world, with a perfect Mediterranean climate tempered by the cooling effects of the sea. The region produces a broad range of wines, the majority of which pair effortlessly with the light, herb-infused cuisine of Provence. Bandol, arguably the most significant appellation in Provence, produces spicy, earthy, rich red wines. These tend to be big and well-structured, relying on the Mourvèdre grape for their power. Vines in Bandol are...
