We are very excited about these very limited Rhones. We are proud to introduce them to Missouri.
"This is a new estate, producing both Cotes du Rhones and Chateauneuf du Papes, that has me as well as some of the locals admiring their first releases. The rather glaringly modern label of these wines reads, “Powered by nature.” Vermeersch was a Formula One driver, and apparently has put his earnings to a good cause, producing southern Rhone wines."

2008 LePlan Classic Cotes du Rhone Rouge...$16.99 
A blend of Grenache, Carignan, and Syrah also from 20 year old vines.
This wine has a wonderful deep purple color and a fresh and fruity nose. The wine is loaded with great berry flavors but is very balanced. This is a delicious and classic Cotes du Rhone. (This wine is organic, but not certified)
2008 LePlan Classic Cotes du Rhone Blanc...$16.99
A great blend of Roussanne, Marsanne and Clairette from 20 year old vines. This is a wonderful white Rhone that has a good citrus component along with the freshness of peaches and apricots. This wine is very impressive for the money with the complexity and length of the finsih. (The wine is actually certified organic).
