Over the past few weeks, we've been working through Gonon's 2019 collection.
Today, we wrap things up with Gonon's Les Iles Feray. I should warn you from the beginning that this is a very small parcel that I would only imagine offering over a holiday weekend.
Les Iles Feray has a riveting purity and is utterly delicious. It's a habit-forming bottle in how it combines fascination with outright drinkability.
Gonon’s signature is pitch-perfect clarity with an intricate and detailed presentation of blackberries, olives, violets, spice, and forest floor notes wrapped around a smoke-infused minerality. This is authentic northern Rhône rendered with the utmost care.
The Les Iles Feray is mostly sourced from parcels lower on the slopes of their Saint Joseph vineyards, and a small portion of young vines further up the slopes. The wine is incredibly agile, pure, and offers up a complicated assortment of bright fruit, spice, floral notes, and minerality. The 2019 offers a beautiful presentation with ample fruit and buoying freshness.
This is only the second time that we've been able to offer Gonon's Iles Feray. Our previous offer sold out within a couple of hours and we expect this modest parcel to also sell out quickly. Please give us your ideal order and we'll try our best.
