Château Miraval Côtes de Provence Rosé — Provence 2025

Château Miraval is the benchmark of Provence rosé — a 1,200-acre estate near the village of Correns, just north of Brignoles, in the heart of the appellation. The vineyards sit on clay and limestone soils, partially terraced at an average elevation of 350 meters, with significant day-to-night temperature swings that preserve the natural acidity and aromatic precision that define the Miraval style. Farmed organically, the estate blends Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, and Rolle into a rosé of exceptional refinement and consistency. The 2025 vintage was shaped by intense summer heat and early maturity — smaller-than-average berries with concentrated, expressive aromatics and the characteristic freshness of Provence. The result is one of the finest Miraval rosés in recent memory.

The color is an elegant, bright pale pink with silvery undertones. The nose is refined and captivating: a superb aromatic bouquet of white flowers, grapefruit, and white peach, with saline and lemony hints that signal the minerality to come. On the palate, it is ample, fresh, and luscious — vibrant white-fleshed fruit punctuated by saline and citrus notes that underscore its freshness and impart a beautiful, stony minerality. The finish is clean, long, and irresistibly Provençal. Serve well-chilled at 44–48°F.

Kermit Lynch Côtes du Rhône Rouge — Southern Rhône, France 2024

Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant is one of America's most respected wine importers — a Berkeley-based legend whose four-decade mission of sourcing authentic, terroir-driven French and Italian wines has defined how Americans understand great regional wine. The 2024 Côtes du Rhône Rouge is Kermit's house blend, a cuvée dating back to the 1980s when he found an inexpensive source of delicious everyday Southern Rhône and turned it into one of his perennial best-sellers. Crafted from a multi-tank selection of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan, Marselan, and Cinsault, this blend is tested and adjusted down to the half-percentage to ensure vintage-after-vintage consistency. The result is a dark-fruited, savory, and supremely versatile red that overdelivers at its price point — equally at home on a weeknight or at a dinner party.

The nose is expressive and inviting: dark red fruit, black cherries, black olives, crushed black pepper, and herbes de Provence, with stony minerality and fresh acidity. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with supple tannins, luscious layers of dark fruit and savory herbs, and a long, delightful finish. It is approachable, crowd-pleasing, and endlessly food-friendly — the kind of everyday Rhône red that disappears fast no matter what's on the table.

67Wine Buyer's Note

Bart Hopkins, 67Wine
Stephanie Fumoso is the great-granddaughter of Eugène Bonfils, who founded Domaine Gour de Chaulé in 1900. The estate has 10 hectares in the village of Gigondas, planted mainly to Grenache with small percentages of Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault. The 2022 Cuvée Tradition is a pure expression of this beautiful part of the Southern Rhône — juicy, herb-infused strawberry fruit on the nose accented with crushed pepper and savory spices. Energetic and lively in the mouth, with a gentle grip of tannins and a lick of acidity on the long, elegant finish. Well balanced and perfectly suited to the dinner table — serve with braised meats, roasted vegetables, and hearty Mediterranean dishes.

Give it two more years in bottle to develop even more complexity."

Commanderie de Peyrassol | Cuvée des Commandeurs | Côtes de Provence Rosé | 2025 | 750ml

Few estates in Provence carry a history as remarkable as Peyrassol. Located in the heart of the appellation, the Commanderie was founded by the Knights Templar in the early Middle Ages — the first recorded grape harvest here dates to 1256. When the Templars were dissolved in 1311, the Knights of Malta assumed stewardship, maintaining the vineyards with characteristic precision until the French Revolution. The Rigord family purchased the estate in 1870, and today Françoise Rigord — who has been making wine here since 1981 — continues alongside her son François. Nearly eight centuries of uninterrupted winemaking, and the Cuvée des Commandeurs remains the estate's most beloved bottle.

Pale and luminous in the glass, this is quintessential Provence rosé: delicate, dry, and effortlessly elegant. Expect fresh strawberry, white peach, and citrus zest on the nose, with a clean, mineral-driven palate and a crisp, refreshing finish. This is the wine that spring and summer were made for.

Serve well chilled alongside black olives, tomato-based dishes, grilled fish, ratatouille, or a simple spread of Provençal charcuterie.

• Appellation: Côtes de Provence AOC, France
• Blend: Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah (traditional Provence blend)
• Style: Dry, pale rosé

The story of Domaine de la Janasse began in 1967. That year, Aimé Sabon returned from his military service. He took over the vineyards of his father, who supplied grapes to a cooperative cellar, and his father-in-law, who sold wine to négociants. By 1973, Aimé had built his own cellar. This is how Domaine de la Janasse was born, named after the family farm located in Courthézon, at a place called “La Janasse.” Aimé was ambitious. Knowing he possessed a fabulous terroir, he continuously expanded the estate by acquiring new parcels. From 15 hectares back then, La Janasse now spans over 90 hectares.

Winemaker Description

The 2024 Côtes-du-Rhône Réserve is a more serious effort than the estate’s regular Côtes-du-Rhône bottling, showcasing Janasse’s ability to marry richness with finesse. Moderately tannic and endowed with a beautiful structure, it develops generous notes of fresh fruit — crushed strawberry and blackberry — on a crunchy, vibrant core, supported by a hint of licorice on the finish.

Pairing Suggestions

• Meat: Roasted lamb with herbes de Provence, grilled duck breast, or beef daube.
• Classic French: Cassoulet, tapenade crostini, or a charcuterie board.
• Cheese: Aged Comté, Manchego, or a firm sheep’s milk cheese.

Domaine de la Charbonnière Côtes du Rhône — Southern Rhône, France 2024

Domaine de la Charbonnière is one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape's most respected family estates — a producer known for combining the intensity and depth of Southern Rhône fruit with genuine finesse and elegance across their entire range. The 2024 Côtes du Rhône is crafted from estate-owned Grenache and Syrah planted on the plots of "Husson" and "Saint Martin" in Courthézon, harvested by hand, sorted on the estate by vibrating table, and vinified together with a two-week maceration for structure and fruit depth. Aging in stainless steel vats and barrels preserves the purity and freshness of the fruit. The result is a beautifully balanced, fruit-forward red that overdelivers at its price point — a pleasure wine built to share.

The nose is fresh and expressive: bright red cherry, ripe strawberry, fresh red fruit, and subtle floral lift. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a clean, fruit-driven mouthfeel, gentle tannins, and a pure, lingering finish dominated by the clarity of the fruit. It is approachable, elegant, and deeply satisfying — the kind of estate Côtes du Rhône that disappears fast at the table.

"We produce wonderfully well-balanced wines that combine the intensity and depth of fruit with finesse and elegance. The plots for this Côtes du Rhône are located in the town of Courthézon. It is a pleasure wine to share with friends and family." — Winemaker's Notes, Domaine de la Charbonnière

Château Minuty Prestige Rosé — Provence, France 2025 750ml

Château Minuty is one of Provence’s most celebrated and historic estates, situated on the Saint-Tropez peninsula in the heart of the Côtes de Provence appellation. A family-owned domaine for generations, Minuty has become synonymous with the finest expression of Provençal rosé — elegant, precise, and unmistakably of its place. The Prestige cuvée is the estate’s signature rosé, crafted from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, and Rolle, and vinified with meticulous attention to freshness and finesse. The 2025 vintage in Provence delivered wines of exceptional aromatic purity and saline tension.

Pale pink with luminous clarity, the 2025 Prestige opens with a very expressive nose of floral notes that give way to aromas of apricot and yellow peach. On the palate, finesse dominates — a subtle hint of citrus and a beautifully saline, mineral finish that is quintessentially Provençal.

La Vieille Ferme · Rouge · Ventoux · Rhône Valley, France · 3.0L Box Wine

La Vieille Ferme is produced by the Perrin family — the same family behind Château de Beaucastel, one of the most celebrated estates in all of Chateauneuf-du-Pape.

The Rouge is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, and Cinsault sourced from the Ventoux appellation — a wine built for the table, for friends, and for any occasion that calls for a generous, crowd-pleasing red. Now in 3.0L bag-in-box format, equivalent to four standard bottles and staying fresh for up to six weeks after opening. At $29.95, this is the red wine you keep on hand all year.

Ruby-purple in the glass with an inviting nose of cassis, dark plum, and fresh herbs. On the palate: richly fruity and supple, with flavors of plum, blackberry, and a stony, savory undercurrent that gives the wine real length and definition. Wine & Spirits awarded 90 points, noting its “tangy berry flavors playing over a stony savor that holds the wine long and clean.” The bag-in-box format preserves freshness and eliminates waste — pour a glass whenever you want, and the wine stays as vibrant as the day you opened it.

Gigondas Redefined — Pure Grenache Mastery from Gour de Chaule

Domaine Gour de Chaule is one of Gigondas's most exciting estates, and Le Gour is their most singular expression: a 100% Grenache from 80-year-old vines that challenges everything you think you know about southern Rhône reds. Where most Gigondas leans into power and density, Le Gour goes the other direction — floral, transparent, and ethereal, with a silky precision that is closer to great Burgundy than to the typical Grenache archetype. The 2022 vintage is a stunning achievement, earning some of the highest scores ever given to this appellation.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2022

• James Suckling — 97 pts: "A superb wine made exclusively from Grenache from 80-year-old vines, silky and ethereal. The nose is seductive, with crushed wild strawberries, bitter oranges, roses and some peppercorns. Medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. Such finesse of texture, with a silky core of bright, transparent and succulent berries. Tension and vibrancy with an infused character. Intense while being restrained and always in control. Long finish. Drink or hold."
• Vinous (Nicolas Greinacher) — 93-95 pts: "The captivating Grenache-only 2022 Gigondas Le Gour is sexy and layered. Pronounced rose petal, crushed violet, orange blossom, quince and raspberry aromas rise up from the glass. The floral lift is just stunning. Despite its medium to full body, this athletic 2022 red offers a seamless mouthfeel and is wonderfully light on its feet. Drinking 2025 to 2032."

Domaine de Beaurenard · Rasteau · Grenache, Syrah & Mourvèdre · Rhône Valley · 2022

For eight generations, the Coulon family has farmed the southern Rhône with a reverence for the land that few estates can match. Domaine de Beaurenard has been certified organic and biodynamic since 2011 — across more than 80 acres in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, 60 acres in Rasteau, and 25 acres in Côtes du Rhône. Their Rasteau is a benchmark expression of this rising appellation: 100% estate-grown Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, co-harvested and co-fermented from south-facing slopes and terraces of stony limestone-clay soils, yielding just 25–38 hl/ha. 2022 was a warm, dry year with late-season rains that restored balance — the result is a wine of beautiful fruity, bright character with real depth and persistence. JS:92 · JD:91 · WS:90. At $37.99, this is biodynamic Rhône at a price that makes it one of the cellar’s great values.

The 2022 opens with intense aromas of black fruit, blueberries, red berries, dried herbs, rosemary, and grilled meat. On the palate: full-bodied and generous, with a beautiful center-palate of ripe berries, chalky mineral, iron, and cooling river stone. Fine, firm tannins and a lively, persistent finish with herbs, peppercorns, and a smoky incense note. Drink now through 2034.

“Juicy, well-shaped and vivid… full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. In control, with a delicious center-palate of generous berries and a lively finish with herbs and peppercorns.” — James Suckling, 92 Points. (Vintage 2022).

“Both firm and vibrant… chalky mineral, iron and cooling river stone notes adding contrast.” — Wine Spectator, 90 Points. (Vintage 2022).

Domaine Lafond Roc-Épine · Lirac · 2023

From the Rhône’s Lirac appellation, this red from Pascal Lafond’s family estate brings dark fruit and spice to the table. The estate describes its farming as practicing organic. A generous, structured wine for roast meats or a slow-cooked supper.

Winemaker Description

A powerful and well built wine, a deep ruby colour with violet tints. Complex nose of vanilla, fruits and griotte-cherries.

The attack is rich and firm; the mouth expresses long lasting nuances of vanilla and pepper. This is a smooth and rich wine with a very good length.

Domaine Lafond · Winemaker Description

Expert Review · 2023 Vintage

A blend of two-thirds Grenache Noir and one-third Syrah, the 2023 Lirac from Domaine Lafond Roc-Épine is a superb effort. It opens with a deep, complex bouquet of dark wild berries, black cherries, violet and licorice, complemented by subtle spice and a discreet touch of oak. Medium- to full-bodied, it’s rich and enveloping, with a fleshy core of fruit, layered textures and a harmonious mid-palate. Framed by velvety tannins, it concludes with a long, spicy and ethereal finish. This is a serious Lirac that will reward cellaring over the next decade or more.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate · 92 points

• Farming: Practicing organic
• Size: 750ml

When Swiss-born Nicky and Gaby Hahn first arrived in California’s Santa Lucia Highlands in the late 1970s, they saw something others had overlooked: a region with the altitude, cool nights, and coastal influence to produce wines of genuine character at an honest price. Decades on, Hahn Family Wines remains family-owned and fiercely committed to that original vision. The GSM — a California take on the classic Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre blend of the Southern Rhône — is one of the range’s most compelling expressions.

Bright ruby in color, the 2023 opens with lively aromas of black raspberry, Bing cherry, violet, and a spike of pink peppercorn. The palate is medium-bodied and savory — concentrated pomegranate, strawberry, clove, and a hint of orange peel carry through to a finish with grippy, well-composed tannins and a touch of brown sugar warmth. Versatile at the table and effortlessly drinkable, this is a GSM that earns its value without apology.

90 points — Wine Enthusiast | “Lively aromas of black raspberry, Bing cherry, and cinnamon stick… concentrated pomegranate, clove, orange slices, brown sugar, and grippy tannins on the finish.” — Tonya Pitts. (Vintage 2023). 

88 points — Wine Spectator | “A perky, fruit-forward, quaffable red, showing a juicy, hibiscus-accented berry mélange, with thyme and sarsaparilla notes on the finish around fresh tannins. Drink now.” (Vintage 2023).

Winemaker Description

Garnet color. It offers a beautiful aromatic complexity, dominated by blackcurrant and blackberry jam, supported by hints of pepper and cocoa.

Domaine Charvin · Côtes du Rhône · Le Poutet · 2024 · 750ml

The Producer

Founded in 1851, Domaine Charvin is now run by Laurent Charvin, the sixth generation of his family to farm the estate. Soon after taking over from his father, Laurent set aside most modern winemaking technology and converted all 28 hectares, including 10 hectares of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, to organic viticulture. Fermentation is traditional and whole-cluster, stems and all, and the wines are raised entirely in concrete, never barrel. For years Laurent was almost alone in working this way. Now others are following his lead. He's regarded as one of the appellation's top winemakers by Guy Julien of the renowned restaurant La Beaugravière in Mondragon, as well as by leading French sommeliers and wine writers. As of 2023, Domaine Charvin joins only Clos des Papes, Clos du Mont-Olivet, Château Rayas and Le Vieux Donjon as a 3-star Châteauneuf-du-Pape producer in the RVF Green Guide.

The Vineyard

Le Poutet comes from vines averaging 50 years old, some as old as 90, in parcels that border Châteauneuf-du-Pape: Maucoil to the northwest, and Campovin and Boislauzon to the northeast. The soils are sandy clay and limestone scattered with galets, the famous rounded stones of the southern Rhône.

The Wine

Roughly 80% Grenache with Mourvèdre, Syrah and Carignan, the grapes see a 15 to 20-day whole-bunch fermentation with daily pump-overs, then 18 months in concrete vat before bottling unfined and unfiltered. The result stands shoulder to shoulder with many Châteauneuf-du-Pape: complex aromas of garrigue and spiced red fruit, with the structure to evolve for ten to fifteen years.

Pairings & Serving

Made for Provençal cooking: herb-roasted lamb, daube de bœuf, grilled sausages, ratatouille or aged hard cheeses. Serve around 60–64°F, and give it some air in its youth.

Winemaker Description

The Wine Advocate | The 2011 Hickinbotham Grenache is medium garnet-purple in color with an intensely scented nose of black raspberries, black cherries and violets as well as touches of cinnamon stick and rose hips.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021 

The Wine Advocate 95 Points | Hints of dried herbs accent raspberries and cherries on the nose of the 2021 Gigondas le Claux. All old-vine Grenache, this is a full-bodied, rich, concentrated effort, with a long, velvety finish oozing dark chocolate. It's exciting stuff, especially considering how difficult the vintage was for some growers.

Wine Spectator 95 Points | Opulent and broad, with a generous cascade of ripe plum and winey cassis notes wrapped in talc-fine yet sturdy tannins. Chewy, with strappy black licorice and cast iron moving in. A seductive, concentrated Gigondas, with impressive harmony as every element hums along toward the seemingly endless finish. Outstanding. Best from 2025 through 2040.

Vinous 94 Points | The 2021 Gigondas Le Claux is at eye level with the Hominis Fides from the same vintage. Powerful and refined, it bursts with intense ripe red fruits, followed by hints of blueberry and traces of cloves, cedar and licorice. This outstanding 2021 red is built around a massive tannic structure. Hence, don't even think about opening a bottle before 2030, as it would be a terrible waste of what eventually will merge into a substantial Gigondas of pedigree and class.

Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points | The 2021 Gigondas Le Claux is elegant and refined, with medium-bodied richness and depth as well as ultra-fine tannins. It has an almost Pinot Noir-like quality in its ripe red fruits, spring flowers, camphor, and forest floor aromatics, and it has good concentration as well as length on the finish. As always, this single vineyard release is all Grenache that wasn't destemmed and was brought up in demi-muids.
