New Arrivals
When it comes to new arrivals here at Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, there is no time like spring and summer. Every week, we are greeted not only by recently bottled rosés, but fresh and exciting whites and reds that we’ve been waiting to revisit.
In the last couple of weeks, we’ve received the sublime whites—and one red—of Domaine Albert Boxler, red Burgundies Benoît Cantin makes in very small quantities, and a few transcendent Champagnes from Paul Bara. Every week, we’ll be adding a dozen or more new arrivals, so check back often for your favorite classics or new discoveries!
Wines In The Collection
Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
Meyer-Fonné’s Dorfburg saturates the senses with heady aromas of rose petal, mouth-filling richness, and tantalizing sweetness
Domaine Dupeuble France | Beaujolais
Do not miss this outstanding, value-driven Chardonnay from one of our most beloved French domaines.
Barruol / Lynch France | Northern Rhône
From vines that are more than eighty years old comes this Marsanne with magnificent floral, pit fruit, and bitter notes.
Frédéric & Daniel Brunier France | Southern Rhône
Clos La Roquète’s blanc is luscious, yet finishes nice and dry with striking acidity.
Albert Boxler France | Alsace
Very smooth, silky, and spicy, a wine obviously influenced by Boxler’s love for Burgundy.
Albert Boxler France | Alsace
Chez Boxler, Chasselas is fortunate enough to enjoy a privileged position on the granite slopes of Niedermorschwihr. Here, it becomes the reincarnation of a bubbling mountain spring—shockingly thirst-quenching!
Albert Boxler France | Alsace
Regal, opulent, and commanding—the finest perfumer in all of France couldn’t craft a more stunning scent.
Albert Boxler France | Alsace
Sweet spices conceal an edgy undercurrent, making this Pinot Gris both versatile and alluring.

With unrivaled versatility at table and guaranteed mouthwatering abilities, Sylvaner brings something new and fresh to the table
Fattoria Moretto Italy | Emilia-Romagna
October Club Gourmand ~ Dry red Italian sparkling wine with dinner? You’ll love it.
Cuna Italy | Tuscany
By planting Pinot Nero in limestone at high elevation, he has found an unlikely home for the grape, yielding a singular rosso that is anything but international in style.
Hippolyte Reverdy France | Loire
Reverdy’s trademark is a generous flavor of blossoming flowers channeled over the palate, culminating in a finely etched mineral finish.
Domaine Roger Neveu France | Loire
Sancerre Rosé is made from Pinot Noir grown in Kimmeridgian limestone soil, and the Neveu family’s interpretation is fine, floral, crisp, and bone-dry.
Benoît Cantin France | Burgundy
Emeline is sourced from the domaine’s favorite bits of their favorite parcels and then long-aged in barrel for a deeper, darker Irancy.
Benoît Cantin France | Burgundy
Cantins’ best parcel—called Palotte—is planted to both Pinot Noir and another traditional Burgundian red grape, César. Usually blended in small amounts, César adds an element of dense, dark fruit and tannic structure to the brighter and more fruit-forward Pinot Noir.
Les Caves de Seyssel France | Savoie, Bugey, Hautes-Alpes
From a village in the French Alps with a reputation for floral-scented charmers made from the local grapes.
Domaine de Marquiliani France | Corsica
Delicate, ethereal aroma—gently floral. Rose water, citrus zest, blood orange. Round and airy on the palate. Bright, clean, pure. Crisp finish.
Cantine Elvio Tintero Italy | Piedmont
The unique blend of Favorita, Moscato, Arneis, and Chardonnay is dry but not tart, fruity but not cloying, and held together with a gentle effervescence.
Paul Bara France | Champagne
Vintage bottles have more grip and a bit of weight than their blended counterparts and often have their best moments at table.
Paul Bara France | Champagne
This Special Club rosé, made mostly of Pinot Noir with some Chardonnay, evokes bright white raspberries and possesses a fine, frothy bubble.
Paul Bara France | Champagne
It simply has it all—refined hazel-nutty, toasty notes, bright acidity, some of the most delicate bubbles ever created, and a finish that lasts and lasts.
France | Alsace
Meyer-Fonné’s Dorfburg saturates the senses with heady aromas of rose petal, mouth-filling richness, and tantalizing sweetness

A contender for Italy’s best Pinot Nero.

Beaujolais Picnic Collection
No other region’s wines are more quaffable, more soifable, more undeniably easy-drinking than those of the Beaujolais. Though I relish the fresh, thirst-quenching charms of Beaujolais in all manner of seasons and settings, it has become an indispensable companion alongside the many simple pleasures of spring and summertime.

The Many Faces of Cabernet Franc
The Loire Valley’s Touraine region may be home to some of France’s grandest châteaux, but when it comes to its wines, the region remains thoroughly paysan, and free of pomp and ceremony. Wine and food are paramount to the spirit and culture here, and made primarily in the image of the weeknight table, impromptu picnic, or barbecue. Cabernet Franc is the star red grape in this rural, central stretch of the Valley...

Côte Rôtie: Rediscovering the Jewel
Hard to believe, but by the 1960s most of the Côte-Rôtie was abandoned to wild brush. One could earn far more money growing apricots along the Rhône than one could growing grapes on the slopes above. What was once celebrated the world over had quietly slid into oblivion. Thankfully, a few growers weren’t fazed and carried on…
Fine Wine Bargains

The Marine Past and Present of Chablis
Looking out at the undulating hills of Chablis, littered with ancient marine fossils, it’s hard not to envision the ocean that once covered this land. Row upon row of Chardonnay vines rise and fall along ridges that roll into the horizon like waves of a massive swell...

50th Anniversary Merchandise
When the esteemed French wine artist Michel Tolmer created beautiful artwork for our 50th anniversary, we knew right away that we had to feature it on a few select items of merch. After spending maybe a little too much time researching the options, we landed on a classy, leather-strap cap, a comfortable t-shirt made from 100% cotton, and a tote made with incredibly sturdy, fair-trade, and organic cotton by a certified B corp that invests in the livelihoods of women and farmers of India, featuring three wine sleeves and two other compartments for all of your other needs!
