Dauvergne & Ranvier 2010 Vin Gourmand Rosé (Costières de Nîmes)
- Online Exclusive
This is a medium-bodied, fresh and fruit-driven example of rosé. The berry, peach and lime flavors make for uncomplicated fun and refreshment. Drink this blend of Grenache and Cinsault over the next few months.

Dauvergne & Ranvier 2004 Red (Côtes du Rhône Villages)
- $15
Creamy and intense, and packed with cherry-berry flavors that end in a soft wall of tannins. To judge by its cleanliness and texture, it’s a modern wine. But it folds in enough spicy complexity on the finish to maintain interest sip after sip.

Dauvergne & Ranvier 2004 Red (Côtes du Rhône)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
A 50-50 blend of Grenache and Syrah, this offering boasts a lovely bouquet of chocolate and plum, but turns a bit firm and drying on the palate. Lacks lushness, but its structure might make it work well with rare beef or lamb.

Dauvergne & Ranvier 2009 Vin Gourmand White (Côtes du Rhône)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
This blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Viognier and 20% Roussanne seems a bit lean and tightly structured for a white from the generally warm communes of Laudun and Saint-Gervais. Aromas and flavors are clipped, with hints of wet stones and underripe pineapple.
