2017 Condrieu “Clos Chanson”
André Perret
André Perret farms some of the top sites in the Condrieu appellation—terroirs that bring out the absolute best in the Viognier grape. The Clos Chanson represents one of two single-vineyard bottlings he produces, from a steep, terraced parcel of rocky decomposing granite. This rich, opulent nectar will pamper your palate, coating it with fine, exotic flavors of candied citrus, lychee, and apricot. Few dry whites are as luxurious and satisfying.

France | Northern Rhône
Yearning for northern Rhône magic? Here you go. Pull a cork or more and see what I mean.

2021 Côte-Rôtie “Les Roses”
France | Northern Rhône
Delicate and perfumed, it speaks softly, yet it has so much to say: lilies, bacon fat, spices... it could only be Côte Rôtie.

2023 Saint-Joseph Rouge “Terre Blanche”
France | Northern Rhône
Elegant blue and black fruit abound, but here it mingles with a hint of sanguinity and some dusty tannin.

France | Northern Rhône
A thick perfume of dry-aged meat, smoke, and violets preface a wine that is powerful, but in perfect proportion.

2022 Saint-Joseph Rouge
France

France | Northern Rhône
The violets, tapenade, and juicy black fruit in your glass is much unchanged from how it’s always been (and should be).

A top site in Condrieu interpreted by one of the appellation’s masters—simply put, one of the greatest expressions of the Viognier grape on earth.

Kermit once said...
When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:
1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
