Les Vignerons Estezarques Rive Droite, Rive Gauche Cotes du Rhone

Rustic in the best way. This Côtes du Rhône leans into its roots, blending fruit from both banks of the Rhône for a wine that feels grounded, vibrant, and completely unforced. Grenache leads the charge, backed by Syrah and Mourvèdre, creating a wine that moves easily between juicy red fruit and savory spice, shaped by sun-soaked soils and traditional, low-intervention winemaking. There’s a looseness here—fresh, slightly wild, and full of character—yet everything lands in balance, making it just as compelling on a weeknight as it is at a crowded table.
