2022 Saint-Joseph “Les Grisières”
André Perret
Les Grisières showcases the stately side of Syrah—it is darker, stonier, and denser than the cuvée above. In five or ten years, it will emerge from your cellar as an extremely fine Saint-Joseph, one of the best the appellation has to offer. Or if you can’t keep your hands off now, pour it into a decanter to rest for a few hours.

2022 Côte-Rôtie “Emporium”
France | Northern Rhône
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.
2020 Saint-Joseph Rouge
France | Northern Rhône
The kind of Saint-Jo to dig into right away: smoky, layered, lush, and laced with violet, bay leaf, and black olive.
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.
2022 Condrieu “Chéry”
France | Northern Rhône
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.
2023 Saint-Joseph Blanc “Les Ribaudes”
France | Northern Rhône
The 2023 falls perfectly in line with the house style: there is not a single sharp edge, only tender, succulent, ripe peachy fruit, plus a touch of honeysuckle to round things out.
2022 Saint Joseph Rouge “La Gloriette Vieilles Vignes”
France | Northern Rhône
The roots of these vines run deep, and deep is what you get in the glass, too—a rich mix of black olive, fennel, and raspberry.
2023 Crozes Hermitage “Tiercerolles”
France | Northern Rhône
This juicy, blueberry-and-leather-infused Syrah with a long finish is ready to drink tonight.
2023 Condrieu
France | Northern Rhône
André Perret crafts white wines of mesmerizing texture, density, and vibrant flavors of stone fruit, jasmine, tropical fruit, orange zest, and so much more.
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.
2022 Saint-Joseph Rouge
France
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.

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
