Domaine Eric Texier ★ 4.7
Eric Texier makes mineral, low-intervention northern Rhone whites and reds from obscure Ardeche parcels. Former nuclear engineer; cult reference for natural Rhone lovers.
Tip: Texier's wines are allocated through specialist importers. In France, La Cave des Papilles in Paris stocks the full range. The domaine itself does not maintain a public tasting room.
