Maison Les Alexandrins Viognier 2024

The Maison Les Alexandrins Viognier 2024 is a shimmering example of how the Northern Rhône’s “nouveau” guard is redefining the region’s classic white varietal. Born from a partnership between Nicolas Jaboulet and Alexandre Caso, this label balances the power of heritage with a lean, contemporary energy that defies the heavy, oily stereotypes often associated with the grape.

Unlike the opulent, tropical bombs found elsewhere, the 2024 vintage emphasizes freshness and precision. Coming from high-altitude vineyards on the slopes of the Ardèche, the cooler climate lends the wine a bracing Northern character that keeps the fruit in check.

The 2024 season required serious agility in the vineyard. Following a temperamental spring, the Maison team focused on daily berry analysis to hit the goldilocks window of phenolic ripeness. The result is a wine that delivers immediate pleasure without sacrificing the complex structure that makes the Northern Rhône the spiritual home of Viognier.
