Domaine de la Sauveuse 2006 Cuvée Philippine Red (Côtes de Provence)
- $19
Like the estate’s Cuvée Carolle, this has a note of volatility and sur-maturité, but it’s also bigger, richer and more extracted, with lots of ripe tannins but also thick purple fruit that comes through on the finish. Try in 2010. 40% Syrah, 40% Cab Sauvignon, 10% Mourvèdre, 10% Grenache.

Domaine de la Sauveuse 1999 Cotes de Provence Red (Côtes de Provence)
- Best Buy
- $13
Provence isn’t all about rosé, as evidenced by this fine red. It begins with grapy, plummy aromas and then delivers a smooth package of plum and cherry fruit in the mouth. The tail end is dark, refined and handsome, with ample depth and power. And all the while vital acidity keeps it fresh and lively. Classy and eminently drinkable. Best Buy. —M.S.

Domaine de la Sauveuse 2010 Cuvée Château Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- $15
A powerful wine, concentrated with an edge of pepper and rich red fruits, lifted with an orange zest flavor. This is serious rosé, intense and worth aging a few months.

Domaine de la Sauveuse 2007 Cuvée Carolle Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- $15
This blend of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault is less obviously fruity than many Provençal rosés, but makes up for that in weight and richness. It’s a round, full style, with a layered texture, some dark fruit flavors and a minerally finish.

Domaine de la Sauveuse 2006 Cuvée Carolle Red (Côtes de Provence)
- $17
Roughly one-fourth each Cabernet, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, this blend shows a touch of volatility on the nose, to go with dark fruit and spice aromas. It’s a big, warm wine, with some tough tannins on the finish. Try in 2010, or pair it with rare meats.

Domaine de la Sauveuse 2004 Cuvée Carolle Dry Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
Bright, fruity aromas of cherries and peaches are offset by brisk acidity, which lead to flavors more along the lines of apple and lime. Fresh and clean, with a hint of chalkiness on the finish.
