A beautifully balanced Côtes du Rhône that punches well above its weight. Crafted by master blender Xavier Vignon, this lush, fruit-driven red showcases the best of the Southern Rhône’s terroir with irresistible charm and depth.
Taste | Rich, vibrant layers of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and raspberry open the palate, framed by hints of wild herbs, baking spices, and a whisper of licorice. Medium to full-bodied with silky tannins and a juicy, supple finish. The texture is smooth yet structured, offering classic Rhône character with modern polish.
About the Winery/Winemaker | Xavier Vignon is one of the Rhône Valley’s most respected and sought-after oenologists. Having consulted for many prestigious estates across Châteauneuf-du-Pape and beyond, Xavier set out to craft wines under his own name that captured the spirit of the region at exceptional value. His philosophy emphasizes blending across terroirs and varietals to create harmonious, expressive wines that speak of place.
Why We Love It | This is a classic example of why we always keep a good Côtes du Rhône on hand—it’s generous, versatile, and delivers serious quality without fuss. Xavier Vignon’s touch brings a little extra refinement and brightness to the table, making this bottle perfect for casual dinners, cozy nights, or just because.
