André Perret

André Perret is one of the most famous names in all the Rhône, and one of the humblest people around. He took over his family farm back in 1982 after studying biology and realising he wanted more of an outdoor lifestyle.

When André returned to his village there were just two other winemakers located there, he has been influential in developing the area and encouraging young winemakers to set up shop there. He has also been instrumental in rejuvenating the fortunes and reputation of Viognier in northern Rhône and is now widely regarded as one of the top producers in Condrieu. Since 2020 André has been joined by daughter Marie, after she finished five years study at agricultural school and a vintage in Cachapoal, Chile. After starting with just half a hectare, they now have 13 ha of vines on some of the steepest slopes of the region, the vineyards are terraced and labour intensive. There are 5.5ha in Condrieu, 5.5 in Saint-Joseph (1 white, rest red), the remainder is VdP Rhodaniennes. The Saint-Joseph and VdP Rhodaniennes wines are certainly worth seeking out too.

About En Primeur

Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines

Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
