2019 Château Gigognan "Clos du Roi" Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Top Pick!
95 points Wine Enthusiast: "Vinified primarily in concrete with a small proportion of whole-bunch fermentation, there's a lifted, airy freshness to Gigognan's Clos du Roi that's consistent from vintage to vintage. A full-bodied blend of Grenache (70%), Mourvédre (20%) and Syrah (10%), it's packed with layers of succulent blackberry, cherry and plum flavors, edged by a stony, salty minerality. *Editors' Choice* (AI)" (11/2022) 93 points Wine Spectator: "A meaty wine, with converging flavors of earth, tar, violet and fruit, plus cranberry and cassis note...

1991 Xavier Vignon "1991" Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Top Pick!

One such project is what we call the vintage series. From those long-standing relationships, Xavier finds parcels of vintage wine from domaines that have been sitting on juice in both barrel and tank for extended periods of time. Sometimes d...

1999 Xavier Vignon "1999" Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Top Pick!
Xavier Vignon was always a scientist at heart and began his studies in pharmacology in Reims in the Champagne region. A chance encounter with an oenologist ignited his passion for wine and set him on a new path where he quickly changed his focus to winemaking. Studying winemaking in Champagne and abroad gave him a different outlook in wine production and he brought that perspective back to Montpellier in southern France where he finished his oenology degree. Accumulating years of wine experience, his career as a consulting winemaker really started in 199...

2020 Domaine Benedetti Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Top Pick!
93 points Decanter: "More expressive and complex than many 2020 Châteauneufs at this early stage, with Provençal herbs and bay leaf aromas to the blackberry fruit - very promising. Light- to medium-bodied, fluid and juicy, with fresh acidity, this is well-defined and should build some complexity in time. Finishes on a savoury note. (MW)" (09/2021) 93 points James Suckling: "A seductive nose of dark cherries, plums, dark chocolate, dried herbs and sweet spices, follow through to a medium to full body with chewy tannins. Structured with a creamy core of ...

2023 Domaine de Fondrèche Ventoux Blanc
Top Pick!
Located in the foothills of Mont Ventoux lies one of the top producers in the Ventoux region of the Rhone - Domaine de Fondreche. Vigneron Sebastien Vincenti took over the winemaking from his mother in 2005. With an eye toward biodiversity and using organic and biodynamic practices for many years, Fondreche was recently certified organic in 2022. The winery sits on a plateau comprised of alluvial soils of clay and gravel with a mix of silex (flint) thrown in for good measure. The Blanc comes from the sandier soils on the property. That cooling soil help...

This is still embryonic but has great potential, displaying balance, freshness and intense, chalky tannins. (MW)" (09/2021) K&L Notes: An 88-acre estate, Château de Montfaucon sits just across the Rhône River from the esteemed vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It is owned and operated by Rodolphe de Pins, a UC Davis graduate and former member of the winemaking staff at Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe. Over the y...

90 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Clos Du Roi Blanc is a juicy, up-front, delicious white with lots of ripe melon and peach fruit, some honeyed, floral, spicy nuances, medium body, a good sense of freshness, and outstanding length. It's beautifully done. " (10/2023) K&L Notes: The estate at Château Gigognan has a history stretching back to Roman times, eventually becoming the property of the bishops of Avignon. More recently, the estate was acquired by Anne and Jacques Callet, who over the last few decades completely rebuilt the win...

This elegant, medium-bodied, balanced red should evolve for 7-8 years."

(MW) " (09/2022) K&L Notes: Directly next-door to the famed Château Rayas, the wines of Font de Courtedune are hidden gems.

Made from 85% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre and the balance Syrah, aged in a mix of foudre and barrels, it offers terrific black fruits, crushed rocks, garrigue, and violet aromas and flavors.

Xavier Vignon, along with Philippe Cambie, are probably the two most highly renowned oenologists in Chateauneuf du Pape as well as some of the surrounding Cotes du Rhone regions.

It was completely destemmed and the Grenache was raised all in concrete, with the balance raised in larger barrels.

Coming from a single parcel of vines and mostly Grenache, with 20% Syrah and 10% each of Vaccarèse and Cinsault, this spicy, complex, and beautifully elegant wine just about jumps from the glass with kirsch and mulled berry fruits as well as notes of spice box, dried flowers, incense, licorice, and lo...

It has incredible purity in its vibrant aromas and flavors of black raspberries, fresh-cut flowers, licorice, graphite, and chalky minerality.

It is unequivocally the finest wine made here since Emmanuel Reynaud’s uncle, the late Jacques Reynaud, produced his brilliant 1995. This wine was just released this year, with the 2008 coming on the market in the next few months.
