Alex Favier acquires his IGP grape supply from family-owned vineyards in the Vaucluse region. Specifically, the grapes originate from two distinct "lieu-dits" located in Travaillan, to the west of Gigondas. La Marteillère boasts clay-rich soil ideal for cultivating Grenache vines, while L’Hers, with its limestone terrain, is the perfect environment for Carignan. These vineyards boast 30-year-old vines, meticulously hand-harvested and de-stemmed.
The process continues with a brief maceration of the Grenache in concrete, followed by aging in five-year-old Burgundy barrels for the Carignan, which serves to refine and soften the tannins. The resulting wine delivers a delightful combination of fresh, ripe red berries with subtle forest floor undertones. It tantalises the palate with deliciously ripe red and black cherries, a hint of spice, and gently lively tannins. The overall experience is beautifully complemented by a refreshing acidity. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with dishes like pasta, grilled lamb, or ratatouille, this wine is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

New & Exciting
There are very few wine shops as good as Butlers, years of buying wines from them. There is always something new & exciting to pick out off the shelves and if you’re in any doubt the advice is considered and insightful.

Brilliant Butlers!
Words can't express the brilliance of Butlers or the thoughtfulness, expertise and compassion of their team! Whilst packing up to move internationally a friend died and I needed to organise an emergency case of something luscious to support the wake. Not only did their wonderful team organise and deliver within an incredibly tight deadline they drafted a message for me too which I approved. Wonderful!!

Delightful, delicious, delectable
As a lockdown convert, I'm an online customer, but the clear website, with interesting blogs and some comprehensive descriptions, really helps to steer you. Great advice when needed and great service too.

Sourcing Stock
Henry and Team managed to locate some difficult to find American wine which they kindly offered and I gratefully accepted. They truly differentiate by being able to surprise by sourcing stock very much outside the run of the mill.

Great Wine/Spirit shop with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff
This was my second visit to Butlers Wine Cellar and on both occasions the service has been wonderful. The young lady assisted me and my wife on a number of purchases of wine and sherry and seemed very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Having tasted them she was spot on with her comments on each bottle. I would highly recommend anyone to use this shop.
