After studying viticulture in Beaune and undertaking several work placements in different estates in Burgundy, Eric Desvignes joined the family business in 1983. With a wealth of viticultural experience behind him and traditional know-how handed down by his father, Eric took over the Domaine in 1998 and today it extends over approximately ten hectares producing Givry Red and White, premier cru and village wines.
The combination of old vines, low yields and organic farming at the vineyard in Givry creates incredible aromatic complexity and a lush texture generally found only in wines with much greater price tags.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate absolutely raved about the new releases from this red-hot estate. Here’s what they had to say, “The young Gautier Desvignes continues his rapid ascent at this 11-hectare Givry estate, and I was delighted by these new releases. In the vineyards, he’s moving away from chemical products, cultivating the soil and using manure instead of synthetic fertilizers. In the cellar, he’s refining his barrel program, working with fûts from Rousseau, Taransaud and Rémond, as well as used Chassin barrels. Bottling is now carried out by a superior contractor, and wines that require it now see crossflow filtration rather than more aggressive alternatives. New glass bottles and thicker corks complete the picture. Elegant, sumptuous reds and bright, chiseled whites are the order of the day, and everything reviewed here comes warmly recommended.”

The 2019 Givry Rouge is already hard to resist, bursting with aromas of sweet berries and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, lively and charming, with melting tannins and juicy acids, it has turned out beautifully.

This is a fabulous price for a red burgundy that has the texture and depth of a wine with a much steeper price tag.

Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!

The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
