Domaine du Monteillet is situated high on the plateau above the village of Chavannay. Since taking over from his father, Stephane Montez has transformed the standard of wine-making at Domaine du Monteillet. Saint-Joseph Blanc, never a commercial wine, is 100% Marsanne with typical mango flavours, almond blossom and beeswax. (6 x 75 cl)
Domaine Courbis dates from the 16th Century and has been handed down from father to son since the start of the 20th Century. Wines from the northern part of St Joseph are more structured and riper than those from the sandier soils of the south. The vineyards are planted on some of the steepest slopes in the area producing powerful wines with a world wide reputation. Domaine Courbis is estimated to be one of the best producers in the area and this is a lovely example of a full-flavoured St Joseph, spicy with smoky overtones. (12 x 75 cl)
