Amphores Detour Blanc 2015 (750ML)

“"Detour" is made from Roussanne, Clairette and Marsanne - it's a delicious Northern Rhone wine and a great value! The aromas are quite floral with white fruits, lemony citrus, hay and brown spice. The palate is supple...

Chapoutier Ermitage L'Ermite Blanc 2011 (750ML)

100 WA / 98+ RP / 97 WS Always more dense, backward and focused, the 2011 Ermitage L’Ermite Blanc has everything I could want out of a white. Flower oil, apricot, honeysuckle, brioche, powdered rock and assorted...

Chapoutier La Combe Pilate Viognier 2017 (750ML)

91 WS / 89 WA / 89-90 JS Bright peach and apricot flavors burst forth, with light fennel and green almond hints trailing through on the finish. The minimal toast allows the deliciously exuberant fruit to shine. Drink now...

Chapoutier Le Meal Ermitage Blanc 2015 (750ML)

100 WA Another perfect wine is the 2015 Ermitage le Meal Blanc. The most decadent, unctuous and layered in the lineup, with to-die-for notes of white currants, toasted nuts, celery seed and licorice, it hits the palate with...

Chapoutier Vin De Paille 2005 (375ML)

96-98 RP / 95 WS Of course, Michel Chapoutier produces some very limited spectacular dessert wines. The 2005 Ermitage Vin de Paille has a dark amber color, much more noticeable acidity than the 2004, but tastes as unctuous,...

Georges Vernay Coteau de Vernon Condrieu 2016 (750ML)

99 JD / 98 WS / 96 VM / 96 WA Lastly, the 2016 Condrieu Coteau de Vernon is cut from the same cloth yet has more density and length. Just about perfection in a glass with its salty sea breeze, citrus zest, tangerine, and...

Guigal La Doriane Condrieu 2017 (750ML)

97 JD / 96 WA / 96 JS Bottled at the end of June and brought up in new barrels, the blockbuster 2017 Condrieu La Doriane is up there with the crème de la crème, and just might be the wine of the vintage in the...

Mayard Chateauneuf du Pape La Crau de Ma Mere Blanc 2017 (750ML)

94 JD I was blown away by the quality of the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc La Crau de Ma Mère and it’s a racy, yet textured beauty that has beautiful notes of citrus oil, green herbs, and crushed rock...

Paul Jaboulet Aine Hermitage Chevalier De Sterimberg 2017 (750ML)

94-97 WA / 94 JD / 93-94 JS Jaboulet's 2017 Hermitage Blanc Le Chevalier de Sterimberg is approximately two-thirds Marsanne and one-third Roussanne. Subtle notes of crushed stone and pencil shavings frame honey, pineapple...

Paul Jaboulet Aine Mule Blanche Crozes-Hermitage Blanc 2017 (750ML)

94 WA / 92 JD A barrel-fermented blend of 50% Marsanne and 50% Roussanne, the 2017 Crozes Hermitage Domaine Mule Blanche is a terrific example of what those varieties can do when they're grown in the right location and...

Raymond Usseglio Chateauneuf du Pape Pure Roussanne 2015 (750ML)

95 WA / 92 VM I was blown away by the 100% Roussanne 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape Pure Roussanne Blanc, and unfortunately, there’s only 600 cases made. Vibrant, taunt and mineral-driven, with the same mouthwatering...

Saint Cosme Cotes du Rhone le Poste Blanc 2017 (750ML)
