Fruity, dense and sensual with some dark cherries, wet earth and white pepper on the nose. Medium body with melted tannins. Mellow and straightforward with more dark-cherry character and a succulent finish. Drink now. Rating: 90 Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com (Jun 2024)
Vinified from fully destemmed grapes, the 2022 Saint-Joseph Les Parcelles is a tasty red that spent ten months in a combination of first-and second-fill French oak barriques. Red plum, leafy undertones, cedar, black cherry and a pinch of dried herbs give the 2022 wonderful complexity. Medium-bodied and concentrated, it should drink well over the next five years. Drinking range: 2024 - 2029 Rating: 91 Nicholas Greinacher - Vinousmedia.com (Mar 2024)
Full-bodied, this has great fullness and depth. Tannins are robust but should settle in time to produce a complex, satisfying wine. Destemmed fruit; aged for 10 months in barrel, some new, some two-year-old. Drinking range: 2026 - 2032 Rating: 93 Matt Walls, Decanter.com (Nov 2023)
Maison Bruyère & David
The best way to discover what is going on in a wine region is to eat and drink in the local restaurants and ask who’s up-and-coming. Our buyers were eating in Condrieu and having a refreshing beer after a hard day of tasting (it is thirsty work!) when they came across this new venture from friends Justin Bruyère & Sylvain David.
Their story is very simple one: two friends united by a passion for wine - as Justin says 'all beautiful projects are born around a glass of wine'.
Justin has deep roots within the region, his grandfather being Michel Delas of famed Hermitage name Delas Frères, whilst Sylvan brings a wealth of winemaking experience, most notably working in the cellars of Domaine des Terres Dorées in Morgon and also the brilliant Domaine Gerin in Côte-Rôtie.
These two relative youngsters in the region, have real passion, drive and enthusiasm and it shows in the wines.

STORAGE OPTIONS:
Wines bought en primeur are scheduled to arrive in the UK over the course of the next eighteen months. If you do not wish to take home delivery, you may wish to consider where you would like the wines shipped on arrival in the UK. Lea & Sandeman offers duty paid and in bond storage through a dedicated storage company called Elephant Storage. For more details on the terms and fees associated with storage please go to our Storage Homepage or contact our primeurs team for more information.
While helpful, we do not require a firm commitment on delivery destination to process your primeur order at this stage. Our team will be in contact with you when your wines arrive in the UK to confirm the necessary delivery details.

OFFER: All wines are offered subject to availability and final confirmation.
PRICING: All prices are quoted IN BOND ex-VAT, by the case size stated. Please double check that the desired case size does match what is being offered as wines are variously listed in threes, sixes, dozens, halves and larger formats.
DELIVERY - TIMING: This is a primeur offer so the wines are not yet physically available for delivery. They will be shipped to the UK over the next eighteen months.

If you require wines to be delivered by a certain date, please advise us at the time of ordering.
DELIVERY - FEES: In bond delivery to an Elephant Storage account (for more information see 'Storage Options' opposite) is free of charge.

If you require wines duty paid, please indicate this in your Wishlist order form. A duty & VAT invoice will be raised once all the wines on your order are available for shipment. Once the relevant duty & VAT has been settled, we will ship the wines to your nominated address as per our normal duty paid Delivery Terms.
PAYMENT: All orders will be invoiced for immediate payment by cheque, cash, debit card or cleared funds to our account. We regret that we cannot accept credit cards for primeur orders. We reserve the right to apply a dunning charge of 2% per month on invoices unpaid after 30 days.
