2022 Condrieu “Chéry”
André Perret
From Condrieu’s noblest site, the 2022 Chéry is what you get when you balance opulence with immaculate taste. André and Marie coax an unmatched degree of freshness and finesse from their Viognier, which gives Chéry a mesmerizingly chiseled and mineral core to go with its kaleidoscopic flavors of peach, jasmine, ginger, pear, and more. This is a world-class wine.

2023 Saint Joseph Rouge “Les Ribaudes”
France | Northern Rhône
A testament to Lionel’s house style, Les Ribaudes is vibrant and juicy with a hint of peppery spice, and earthy minerality imprinted by its granite terroir.
2023 Hermitage Rouge “La Pierrelle”
France | Northern Rhône
Expansive savory aromas, meaty, broad, velvety tannins, grandness, ripeness and freshness, all at once. Only in Hermitage!
2019 Hermitage Blanc “La Pierrelle”
France | Northern Rhône
From vines that are more than eighty years old comes this Marsanne with magnificent floral, pit fruit, and bitter notes.
2022 Saint-Joseph Rouge
France | Northern Rhône
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.
2022 Saint-Joseph Rouge “L’Instinct”
France | Northern Rhône
It is a real-deal northern Rhône roasted-slope Syrah that walks the tightrope perfectly between creamy fruit, meaty tannins, and fresh spine.
2023 Crozes-Hermitage Rouge “Passe Temps”
France | Northern Rhône
Frédéric soon had a local following in and around his village for his old-school, dark, juicy Crozes with its hints of tapenade and smoke.
2024 Le Vin des Amis
France | Northern Rhône
An irresistible charmer, characterized by a brilliant floral perfume and wild dark fruit. Extremely limited availability.
2023 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.
2022 Saint-Joseph “Les Grisières”
France | Northern Rhône
Yearning for northern Rhône magic? Here you go. Pull a cork or more and see what I mean.

The pinnacle of traditional Côte-Rôtie being produced today.

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
