For this Rouge variety, red Pineau des Charentes is combined with white wine and 28 distinct botanicals. It contains no artificial coloring. The name honors Jean-Baptiste de la Quintinye, botanist to King Louis XIV and creator of the Kitchen Gardens at the Palace of Versailles.

Thanks to a friend. Not my typical drink, but hey, embracing the moment. Smells sweet, like port wine, with notes of peach and vanilla. On the palate, it's smooth and fruity with vanilla undertones.

Gavin Stinson 3.5

Herbal and sweet on the nose, abundant with herbs, bark, lemon-lime soda, wood, and hops. Sweet on the palate, with notes of cola, herbs, and earth. Rich.

Dominic Law 4.0
