Rhône in 1978.
The reference vintage of the northern Rhône. A late, dry, sunny autumn after a cold spring, a small crop, and wines that took thirty years to open.
Henri Bonneau made wine in a damp cellar under the village, in old barrels he refused to replace, and released it when he felt like it. The Célestins is Grenache from the pebbles of La Crau at its most profound.
Condition is described before anything travels: fill level, label, capsule and original case, bottle by bottle. If you have not bought an older bottle before, our note on fill levels explains what those words mean and what they are worth. The 1978 leaves storage once, insured and temperature-controlled, for your home, your cellar or your account at a bonded warehouse in Switzerland.
