Eric Texier (minimal sulfite winemaking) ★ 4.6

Cotes du Rhone AOC and Vin de France (Ardeche)

Eric Texier uses minimal added sulfur across his range, with several cuvees bottled with zero sulfur addition. The Ardeche whites (Chat Fou, Breze Viognier) and the Syrah Vin de France are all produced with minimal intervention in both vineyard and cellar.

Tip: Texier's minimal-sulfite wines are delicate; they benefit from careful temperature-controlled transport and storage. Import records from RAW Wine confirm the low-sulfite production approach.
