Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet (no added sulfur) ★ 4.7

Saint-Joseph AOC and Vin de France (Ardeche)

Herve Souhaut's Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet produces all wines without added sulfur. The low-sulfite approach is consistent across the Serine Vin de France, Saint-Joseph rouge, and Viognier cuvees. RAW Wine's producer listing confirms zero-addition sulfite production.

Tip: The no-sulfite approach makes these wines sensitive to temperature shock. Only purchase from merchants with correct cold-chain storage.
