About
This is one of the best value and most consistent rosés around.

About the Wine

Outstanding value Provence Rose made from Cinsault and Grenache.

It's salmon pale rather than watery, dry and refreshing but still with flesh and flavour, and it leaves a bounce in your step, not a hole in your wallet.

There's cherry, watermelon, some tropical peach, and a lovely chalky texture. Provencal herbs can also be seen, but we may be over-romanticising here...

Jules is Julian Faulkner, son of the Faulkner family who took over the Domaine du Grand Cros in the heart of Provence, and who now make both prestige and bargain Roses.

About Faulkner Wine

Jane and Hugh Faulkner are pretty much leading all our best lives. They purchased Domaine du Grand Cros in 1989, situated in the heart of Provence, equidistant from Toulon and St Tropez.

They soon progressed to bottling their own wines rather than selling in bulk, and moved towards greater sustainability, achieving in 2020 the French HVE certification (Haute Valeur Environnementale). Their son Julian is now the general manager.

Their Jules Rose is simply one of the best value Roses in the world.

The Wine Front

"This is one of the best value and most consistent rosés around. Pale, dry, tangerine and fresh strawberry, with a quiet perfume and a little zest and spice. It offers a little gloss and creaminess, with some powdery texture, and a little citrus zest and quinine on a finish of solid length. In short, it delivers the kind of goods most people will be looking for in this style." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
