Collection: Jean-Baptiste Souillard

In 2021 we introduced you to the incredible wines of Jean-Baptiste Souillard. The response was amazing. With one offer, a formerly unknown (for most of us) producer became our second best selling Northern Rhone producer. In the four years since that fist offer, the Souillard wines have become even more enthusiastically received.

Jean-Baptiste wants freshness - his grapes are usually sourced from têtes de coteaux, the top of the hillside vineyard sites. The whites, grown on limestone, offer a deep minerality, rich textures and great depth. He wants granite “soil” for the reds. 

As to the reds, they are absolutely captivating. They unfold tirelessly, a ‘catch me if you can’ between a very whole-cluster-faded rose petals profile and magnificent, tense, savory notes. On the palate, the flavors are all savory with bright acidity and great structure against very pure syrah fruit. Never tiring, they always call for a further glass and for food. It’s a good idea to give these wines a good hour or two head start in a decanter if drinking while young.

The elevage is classic, utilizing old-school principles. The wines are aged in used barrels only, and they are fined and filtered only according to taste. All of the wines below, with the exception of the whites, are 100% Syrah. Importantly, these wines are all have exceptional balance and range between 12.5% - 13% in alcohol.

All of these wines are very limited - some only a few cases. First come, first served. Order by responding to this email.

Six-packs and cases, including those ordered through the website, will have discounts applied manually when we process your order. For this offer, you can even mix and match different wines to get the discounted price.
