This thoroughbred wine is sculpted for the cellar but still provides a lot of immediate gratification.

It is a real-deal northern Rhône roasted-slope Syrah that walks the tightrope perfectly between creamy fruit, meaty tannins, and fresh spine.

With a nose of gunflint and suave Marsanne fruit, it has length and finesse; extremely limited availability

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.

The nearly 120 years that Bastien Jolivet’s small plot of Syrah vines have spent drawing sustenance deep from the granite soils of Saint-Joseph have left a steely stamp on Jolivet’s Cuvée 1907.

Aromas of black pepper, briny black olive, and violets with the earthiness, herbs, and concentration of southern Rhône Grenache.

This blanc is befittingly made from only Marsanne, with subtle, but not shy notes of stony peach, orange blossom, and pear.

Majestically dark and brooding Cornas, layered with aromas of herbs and mint. Extremely limited availability

Golden, luscious aroma and flavor, a delicious nectar infused with honeysuckle that invites you in at first sniff for a leisurely dip.
