This juicy, blueberry-and-leather-infused Syrah with a long finish is ready to drink tonight.

Delicate and perfumed, it speaks softly, yet it has so much to say: lilies, bacon fat, spices... it could only be Côte Rôtie.

The greatest southern Saint-Josephs recall the wines of Hermitage, and the greatest northern examples resemble Côte-Rôtie. André’s are certainly among the finest, and always have great density despite their seeming weightlessness and elegant bouquet.

With lovely notes of currant and violets, this bright, crunchy wine is irresistible in its youth. Serve cool with just about anything.

This juicy, blueberry-and-leather-infused Syrah with a long finish is ready to drink tonight.

Made from six vineyards that, when blended, showcase the whole of the Côte Rôtie appellation.

From vines that are more than eighty years old comes this Marsanne with magnificent floral, pit fruit, and bitter notes.

The “Emporium” is sourced exclusively from the Fourvier lieu-dit and sees about a year more in demi-muid and barrel than his standard Côte-Rôtie.

Elegant blue and black fruit abound, but here it mingles with a hint of sanguinity and some dusty tannin.

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