"From Grenache with a bit of Carignan and roughly one-third matured in larger cask, the Bila-Haut 2009 Cotes du Roussillon-Villages Lesquerde L'Esquerda is grown on granitic soil in the town - high up above the Agly and west of Maury - for which it is named, and where Chapoutier has taken-on..

A Morrell Discovery! We buy most of our Bordeaux Petit Chateaux directly from France, but this little beauty was brought to us by an old friend, Bernard Sparr, of the famous Alsatian Pierre Sparr family wines.

"Servin’s 2010 Chablis Les Pargues is stunningly beautiful. It boasts crystalline precision in its aromas and flavors. Floral notes lead to crushed rocks, slate and lemon peel in this fabulous Chablis. This is a great showing from Servin’s entry-level offering."

"The exceptional 2009 Crozes-Hermitage is one of the top wines of the vintage. A complex bouquet of black olives, licorice, ground beef, spring flowers and red and black currants soars from the glass of this 100% Syrah that is aged in 3-year-old barrels as well as larger foudres. With remarkable..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This comes from a plot near Pommard. It shows fresh, bright, pure raspberry and cherry fruit. It’s light and expressive with ripe fruit, savoury freshness and a bit of grip. Impressive for the price."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Somewhat seductive, like the wine maker himself, this is a charming, rich, focused and delightful white. The wine has a fresh backbone of acidity, clean flavors, and an excellent balance. A most refreshing white burgundy and one that is great value.
