Low Stock Cuvée de l’Oppidum Blanc 2020

Cuvée de l’Oppidum Blanc 2020

Item Code: 4087920

Description

They say it takes a village, but here it just takes seven. Thanks to Jean Paul, Flo, Gilles, Greg, Alain, Bernard and Sebastian, their village cellar has retained its proud independence. Reap the rewards in their creamy, rounded Rhône Blanc.



The magnificent seven behind this white are led by Jean Paul Coste, winemaker and grandson of the village cellar’s founder. Light on numbers and overshadowed by near neighbour Châteauneuf du Pape, Jean Paul could have sold out to the big boys. But that would mean the end of the village wine. Instead, our heroes decided to stand and fight – making the cellar a really personal project. They produce Rhône wines with just as much character too.

Their Gold-medal red was a hit with customers when it launched. Now we’re excited to share their Blanc. It’s another gem. Citrus, apricot, peach and wild flower notes mingle with a honeyed lovely intensity and mineral depth – rich, but still fresh and dry. Serve with grilled fish for a perfect match.

Low Stock Domaine Michel & Stéphane Ogier Viognier de Rosine 2020

Domaine Michel & Stéphane Ogier Viognier de Rosine 2020

Item Code: 2494120

Description

Wine Advocate described a previous vintage of this fragrant, mineral-laced white as “a dead ringer for fine Condrieu”. Apart from its much kinder price. From vineyards close by and a terrific winemaker, this is a very fine, exotically spiced white.

Wine Spectator described Stéphane Ogier’s wines as “dynamic and elite”, while Wine Advocate wrote “the estate is unquestionably in the top handful of domaines in the Rhône Valley”. Stéphane took over from his father in the late 1990s, added extensively to the vineyards (he owns 10 hectares in Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and Saint-Joseph) and built himself a gleaming, modern cellar. Terroir is his raison d’être. Grapes for Viognier de Rosine come from elevated, granite-soil vineyards bordering Côte-Rôtie, just north of Condrieu. Their terroir lends the wine its wonderful mineral elegance which balances the floral peach notes. Fermentation and lees ageing in oak for two thirds of the wine brings a creamy plumpness, matched by the bright fruit.

Low Stock Ferraton Père et Fils Les Pichères Crozes-Hermitage 2021

Ferraton Père et Fils Les Pichères Crozes-Hermitage 2021

Item Code: 2490921

Description

Les Pichères is a gorgeous rich red from the northern Rhône's prized Crozes-Hermitage. Since 2004 the domaine’s been run by one of the region’s top names, Chapoutier. This red displays their hallmark excellence, along with the superb quality of 2021.

Founded in 1946, Domaine Ferraton has always been a highly regarded estate. Yet since the Chapoutiers have come on board, quality has risen even higher. Chapoutier is renowned for highest biodynamic standards, and the sumptuous richness and depth of this beautiful wine shows off its class. Open to reveal dense, smoky black fruit with wafts of herbal garrigue and liquorice, the essence of Northern Rhône Syrah. The palate is velvety, with an underlying grip of tannins and pure black fruit, the finish deliciously long. Open early and serve with your finest French-style lamb roast. Superbe!
