LE ROUGE For a Grenache/Syrah blend that showcases the bright and easy-drinking side of these two varieties, the 2023 vintage of Souleil Rouge is just the ticket. Crafted from a traditional blend of organically farmed Syrah and Grenache, this fruit-forward wine offers flavors of blackberry jam, cherry coulis, and savory hints of thyme. Think of it as Cru Beaujolais meets the sunny south of France — and be sure to serve it chilled to allow the wine's best side to shine. 

OUR STORY

Souleil’s story starts in a sun-drenched wine region of southern France along the Mediterranean Sea, where founders Marianne and Thomas grew up surfing and shucking oysters. After years cultivating their own expertise working in wine, the childhood friends began to dream about making a wine that embodies the feel of an endless summer.

THE BREAKDOWN

SOULEIL =
“SUN” IN ANCIENT FRENCH
BONTÉ =
“GOODNESS”

In thinking about what kind of wine they love to drink, they knew it had to be fresh and elegant. A wine that that could be poured both as an apéritif — the French version of a sundowner — and at a dinner party, one that’s perfect for starting and ending an evening in true French bon vivant style.

IN SOULEIL, THERE IS SOUL. IT IS A WINE SERVED WITH A SIDE OF PURPOSE.

Focusing on sustainability, they created Souleil Vin de Bonté, a vegan and organic wine intended to be served with a side of purpose.

Part of Souleil Vin de Bonté’s proceeds go toward protecting one of the planet’s most valuable resources: our oceans.

In France, apéritif takes place before lunch or dinner — and sometimes becomes it. The main ingredient is a good glass of something delicious to help whet your appetite. Souleil already covers half the equation. Now comes the part that’s equally as fun: the food. While you can certainly sip this wine on its own, why not see how the notes get even brighter with the addition of brined olives or sun-dried tomatoes and a piece of freshly toasted baguette?
