Both are farmed organically, and the wines are made naturally. Benoît, a charming fast-talker, is most at home in the vineyard waxing poetically in Franglais about this wild Ardechois terroir, arguably one of the least-tamed in France, a jumble of rolling hillsides and national parks featuring steep, swimmable river gorges where French adventure-seekers come for their summer holidays. In terms of wine, the Ardèche is akin to the Cotes du Rhone, but more fun. There’s far less pressure here to hit certain marks of ‘typicity’, so the region has fostered winemakers like Benoit and Florence who make something fundamentally new out of Grenache and Syrah. This Cuvee – named for the local name for a donkey – smells of strawberries and orange peel, dusty earth and sage and warm wind off the garrigue-crusted hills. The palate is bouncy and joyful, with raspberries and hood strawberries and orange zest and delicate tannins. This mouthwatering red is made for Turkey-centric feasts and good friends.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Julian Sinclair","offers":[{"title":"Red \/ Rhone \/ 2024","offer_id":47325527212336,"sku":"","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/3797\/5088\/files\/CrosdesCaladesVindeFranceAze2022.jpg?v=1704051020"},{"product_id":"domaine-de-lencantade-cotes-catalanes-sans-souci","title":"Domaine de l'Encantade Cotes Catalanes Sans Souci 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eNestled in the rugged countryside of Trevillach in foothills rising into the Pyrenees, Domaine de l‘Encantade looks like it was scooped out of the pages of a fairy tale.

France’s Breton coast traditionally begins at the mouth of the Loire, and while the modern departments put Nantes in the Loire-Atlantique, it is still a city full of buckwheat Galettes, oysters, fish stews and Celtic motifs. Meanwhile, the jumbled granite shore that lines the coast of Morbihan and Finistere are broadly similar to the bedrock underneath the vines of Clisson and Les Gorges, two of Muscadet’s finest emerging Crus, where Stephan and Vincent Perraud manage Domaine des Cognettes. Les Deux Terres is a selection drawn from both these prized sites, and brilliantly captures the scent of granite (in Clisson) and Gabbro (in Gorges) and brine in the Atlantic air. Aged in traditional glass-lined underground tanks with the lees, this Muscadet doesn’t waste a drop of character from the vineyard. Aromas show flint and stony minerality, lime zest and lemon juice and salt. The palate is bright and crisp yet creamy textured, with lemon curd and tangerine fruits that lead to a lip-smacking salty finish.

Before the second world war, the family were sharecroppers in Valpolicella, farming wheat and grapes and keeping cattle. Italy’s economic revolution of the 1950s and 1960 allowed them to buy their farmhouse and specialize in growing grapes, a business they proved to be very good at. Today, Farina turns 45 hectares of vineyard into a dizzying range of wines, but one of the most important is this everyday red, the Valpolicella Classico, made from the classic blend of Corvina, Corvinonae, Rondinella and Molinara, aged in stainless tanks. The result is the essential Valpolicella red, with vibrant and bright aromas of red cherry, cranberry, marmalade and roses before a crunchy palate with tea-leaf tannins and red berries throughout with a touch of dried orange peel. Fans of Valpolicella will immediately recognize the easy, quaffable-yet-satisfying note the wine always seems to strike. Serve with mushrooms, sausages, polenta, and cannellini dishes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Banville","offers":[{"title":"Red \/ Veneto \/ 2025","offer_id":68185069289776,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/3797\/5088\/files\/FarinaValpolicellaClassico2025.jpg?v=1793569113"},{"product_id":"les-freres-engel-alsace-blanc-2023","title":"Les Freres Engel Alsace Blanc 2023","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe’re pleased to introduce Les Freres Engel, the latest Alsatian gem to arrive in PDX, never before imported to the United States.

The second thing you learn is that they know their vineyards in and around the Praelatenberg Grand Cru to the pebble, and the third thing you learn is that they are spectacularly talented winemakers.

Growing grapes at more than 1100 meters elevation is difficult because grapes here struggle to ripen, but the hard work is worth it, because grapes grown here ripen with far more intense flavor and sturdier structure. The Enfoque Blanc is a 50\/50 blend of Godello and Garnacha Blanca, a new blend that brings Spain’s northwest and east coast together in the mountainous middle. A wine from these two varieties can’t help but be intensely fruity on the nose, with notes of pineapple, persimmon and peach; but the elevation and distinct landscape offer a touch of bayleaf and salty essence. The palate is a mouthful of peach and tangerine both full bodied and refreshingly crisp.

Up to that point, the family were strictly growers selling their fruit to the local cooperative, but in 2005 he began making his own wines from vineyards in Chateauneuf-du-Pape and the Cotes du Rhone surrounding. From the beginning, Julian intended to make wine using organic methods, a certification he achieved in 2012, and all his wines are meant to be approachable, neatly balanced, and pure. His latest and perhaps purest wine yet is this Rolle – the French name for Vermentino – a lightly spicy white grape that loves to bask in Mediterranean breezes and an increasingly important white grape in the Rhone. The nose offers pears, pineapples, orange zest and white pepper with limestone soil notes. The palate arrives like orange sorbet, medium bodied and silky before a delicately snappy finish.
