GIGONDAS, FRANCE

To walk through the high-altitude vineyards at Domaine de Durban is to walk through an astounding span of history. On the site of a former Roman healing springs destination, a mere handful of soil reveals well-preserved, ancient Roman roof tiles and medieval pot shards.

This is one of our favorites! Round, beautiful dark berry fruit with a nice dry finish made from Grenache and Syrah.

Food Pairings: Beef loin, hearty fish in tomato-based sauces, roasted pork chops.
