Domaine André Perret has long been a source of exceedingly high-quality red and white wines. With the arrival of Perret’s daughter, Marie, in 2019, nothing has changed. Condrieu is the specialty here, but the Saint-Josephs can be among the very best of the appellation, even if they are less well-known and harder to find. Marie, who studied in Lyon and worked in California and Chile before returning home, is now entirely in charge of the winemaking while her father tends to the vineyards. In many vintages, I find that Perret’s red wines rival plenty of Côte-Rôties for intensity and complexity, which has been the case in recent years.

André Perret and his daughter, Marie, took me through their 2019s and 2018s and told me that “2018 gave good freshness and spicy character to the wines, and while alcohol levels are on the high side, historically, they aren’t crazy.” The wines have solid underlying structure and will age well, they think, “without being so solid that they require a lot of patience, like 2015.” The same can be said for the 2019s, the Perrets said, but André Perret added that “they have even more fruit expression, and you could sense it immediately, right when the grapes came off the vines.”
