You will get two emails from us with regards to your order. The first email from us only confirms that we received your order. The second email will confirm that we have enough wine to fill your order. Due to the high volume of sales there are times when the wine has sold out, but our system is still updating and shows it as available. We're sorry for any inconvenience and will do what we can to fill your order!

Thanks to your feedback we might bring back some of Cinderella Wine's popular previous offers. If a wine makes another appearance here, this newer offer will always be slightly higher than the original one. Offers that are on the site on Friday through Sunday will be shipped on Monday.

91 Pts Wine Spectator

"Very pure, with creamy-textured yellow apple, chamomile and quince notes backed by a long, minerally finish. Should age nicely. Drink now through 2013." 91 points Wine Spectator

"(a 50/50 blend of marsanne and roussanne) Bright yellow. Ripe pear and melon on the nose, with deep floral honey and zesty white pepper building in the glass: lots going on here. Fleshy but delineated pit fruit flavors coat the palate and finish with a taut quince quality." 90 points - Josh Raynolds - International Wine Cellar

WINE:
"Winemaking in barrels (35% new) at low temperature with six months of batonnage once a week. No racking. Aging on the lies for 10 months." -Importer

WINERY:
"Known as a Condrieu 'master', Francois has grown his tiny domaine from 4 to 7 hectares and still produces a miniscule amount of highly allocated bottlings. Referred to by Robert Parker as one of the 'stars' of the Northern Rhone, Francois has recently acquired a small parcel in Cote-Rotie and a few ares in St. Joseph. Formerly a chef, Francois brings his complex palette to the winery to produce wines of power and grace that age for years. Francois Villard's strategy is to allow for the most optimal ripening possible. His wines, as a result, are rich and concentrated with complex aromas of peaches, apricots, honeysuckle, and honey for the whites and leather and spice for the reds. The whites are often allowed to develop botrytis and most of the wines pass through wood ageing for an extended amount of time to prepare them for a very long life in bottle." -Importer
