2015 is an unmissable vintage in Cornas. Even Jancis Robinson drops her British reserve and urges wine lovers to “grab northern Rhône 2015 reds with both hands.”
Bonneau's wines exist on another level, especially Célestins. They are peerless and singular Châteauneufs. Bonneau's unyielding traditionalism reaches its zenith in the Célestins bottling.
La Geynale is one of the great vineyards of Cornas.
Beaucastel is a name that looms large for those obsessed with the Southern Rhône.
We've been waiting for our Bénetière allocation for a long time. Lately, we've been obsessed with 2013 Northern Rhône. Côte-Rôtie seems like a sweet spot for the vintage.
Every time that I've come across a well-priced offer for Clape's 2013 Cornas, I've jumped on it. Today's offer represents a modestly sized parcel of the wine that I've managed to put together since our last offer in January.
It's been impossible to take notice of Vincent Paris. He's one of the most talked about young winemakers in the Northern Rhône.
The smart move is to keep this offer brief. Our recent Souhaut offers have sold out quickly.
Levet's La Chavaroche has become one of the essential facets of our Northern Rhône selections. Every time that we offer the wine, orders pour in. The explanation is easy. Levet's Chavaroche is unapologetically raw, stunningly pure and beautiful. You'd be hard pressed to find an expression of Syrah as honest.
Anytime that I have the opportunity to sit down with one of Bonneau's wines I get very excited. They are some of the most magical and soulful wines around. He was the grand old wise man of the Southern Rhône. There is simply nothing like Bonneau's Châteauneufs. I write all of this with a fair amount of melancholy. Sadly, Henri Bonneau passed away this March.
Last week, we offered Souhaut's 2015 St. Joseph Les Cessieux under the heading "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow." By 5pm we were allocating bottles. Souhaut makes absolutely gorgeous and insanely drinkable Northern Rhône wines. And people have clearly noticed.
Hervé Souhaut first released a Cessieux in 2013. It immediately became a favorite. The vineyard has been in Souhaut's family for many years, but was leased out until recently.
Jamet is known for benchmark Côte Rotie, but when it comes to drinkabilty, it's their Collines Rhodaniennes we reach for.
The Gonon brothers have amassed a cult following for their St. Joseph Rouge, but their St. Joseph Blanc remains much more elusive. This is the first time that we've been able to offer Gonon's Blanc. It's a very difficult wine to track down. If you look around, you'll only find a handful of listings.
Allemand's Cornas are some of the most singular expressions of Cornas around. No one competes in terms of expressiveness and finesse.
What the Gonon brothers achieve on the steep granite slopes of Saint-Joseph is amazing. Appropriately, the wines have attracted a cult following. Finding authentic Northern Rhône Syrah at affordable prices is a rare thing.
The only prudent thing to do is to keep this offer brief. This has all the markings of something that will sell out in a flash.
"While it's common to chase the top wines, don't miss his Cornas Renaissance in 2012. It's a terrific wine. " -Jeb Dunnuck Everyone agrees that Clape knocked it out of the park in 2012.
2013 in the Northern Rhône produced a gorgeous cast of wines. It's the Northern Rhône exactly as we like it. The wines are mineral and structured with a vibrant core of acidity.
We hold the 2013 Northern Rhône vintage in very high regard. But Clape took everything to another level.
In short, he nailed the vintage.We use cookies on our site to give you the best experience. To continue using our site, please accept cookies.
