This wine is unfined and unfiltered.

About Etienne Becheras

Producer Story

Etienne Bécheras is a veteran vigneron who brings an unapologetic confidence to his soulful wines. A weathered man with an imposing presence, it is clear that he spends the majority of his time working his steep vineyards and apricot, cherry, ash, and acacia orchards that are spread among 12 ha above the village of Arras. Always generous and friendly, his humility and honesty come through in the wine. With vineyards principally situated in the Saint-Joseph appellation, supplemented with limited but well-placed holdings in Crozes-Hermitage, Becheras’s wines are an excellent example of wines from this mid-section of the Northern Rhône and offer compelling value.
