Producers
Domaine Giacometti
France | Corsica
Not quite Rhône-like and not quite Corsican, this has the best of both worlds, with plenty of palate-staining black fruit to boot.
Grottafumata
Italy | Sicily | IGT Terre Siciliane
Grottafumata means “smoky caves” and that's exactly what I think about when I swish this around. Grown in volcanic soils, it's a perfect balance between smoky tannins and Sicilian grapes.
Ferretti Italy | Tuscany | Rosso di Montalcino
Yves Leccia
France | Corsica | Patrimonio
Leccia's earthy, delicious island-mountain wine is fun, accessible and pairs with anything from fish stew to pasta to lounging in the park.
Antoine-Marie Arena
France | Corsica | Patrimonio
Aromas of black fruit, graphite, wild herbs, and game over firm, stony tannins. Saturated with flavors of the Île de Beauté.
Régis Bouvier
France | Burgundy | Marsannay
Bouvier fashions a red that is at once serious and gay, generous and firm, bold and elegant.
Ludovic Engelvin
France | Languedoc-Roussillon | Gard
This wine is full of fresh Grenache fruit, beautifully perfumed, with a refined and elegant finish.
Alex Foillard France | Beaujolais | Côte de Brouilly
Jean-Claude Marsanne
France | Northern Rhône | Crozes-Hermitage
This small parcel has a fruit-forward, approachable style, yet with intense spice and licorice in there as well, perhaps from the deep-rooted old Syrah vines.
Maxime Magnon France | Languedoc-Roussillon | Corbières
Alex Foillard
France | Beaujolais | Brouilly
A generous dash of plump, sun-ripened fruit enveloping a granite core.
Domaine Robert Chevillon
France | Burgundy | Bourgogne
Today, awareness of Passetoutgrain has largely faded, but if you look closely in cellars throughout Burgundy, you’ll notice many of the greatest domaines continue to uphold this tradition.
Domaine Lucien Boillot & Fils
France | Burgundy | Bourgogne
A rare blend: Pinot fruit from around the village of Gevrey-Chambertin and some from Volnay.
Silvio Giamello
Italy | Piedmont | Barbaresco
Rich, ripe fruit with the delicacy and floral notes we love in great Barbaresco.
Domaine de la Tour du Bon
France | Provence | Bandol
This Bandol captures the essence of the Mediterranean. It has lush fruit with hints of rosemary, squid ink, and peppery meaty flavors.
