Chateauneuf-du-Pape
Domaine
Pierre Andre
-- $59.99
-- Pierre André and his daughter continue a family tradition of producing powerful red wines from their thirty six acres of vines in Courthezon, between Orange and Avignon in southern France. Organic agriculture is another tradition in this family, who began using these methods in 1963 and converted fully in 1980. They have also practiced biodynamic viticulture, and have been certified biodynamic by Demeter since 1990. Wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape are made from a blend of up to thirteen grape varieties. The André wine blends major elements of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre with smaller amounts of Cinsault, Counoise, Picpoul, and Muscardin. Their vines average 60 years old with some parcels exceeding 100 years! Diverse soil types and a southern exposure give these vines excellent conditions for production of balanced, healthy wines that will develop for many years after the harvest.The 2000 vintage invites you to travel through layers upon layers of gustatory revelations. It is the kind of . . .

Cotes-du-Rhone
Domaine des Cedres
-- $14.99
-- Domaine des Cèdres is located in a small commune in France's Southern Rhône Valley. Often called a "Blessed Region," the Rhône Valley is in a climate that is ideal for grape growing. The vineyard features several plots on hillsides which have a stony, clayey and calcareous soil which are friendly to vines and little else. The stones absorb the hot summer sun and then reflect warmth onto the vines at night. The climate is mediterranean, although the Mistral, a cold northerly wind that can endure for days on end, is a feature of the Southern Rhône. The dry Mistral winds, however, minimize vine disease and dry out the vineyard if hit with summer rains.Domaine des Cèdres winemaker, Dominique Pons, is a true pioneer of organic viticulture. He has been into organic winemaking for at least 20 years, and was one of the first in the Côtes-du-Rhône AOC to go organic. In addition, he's been studying and applying the principles of Biodynamic farming at Domaine des Cèdres for several years, and is involved . . .
