Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package, carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older.

Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

If you'd like to reroute a package after it's been shipped, we can do so for a $20 re-routing fee. We cannot re-route a package across state borders. For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.

Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice-packs upon request. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Producer profile

Domaine H

Domaine H is the winemaking project of Sukhwan Ha, a Korean-born winemaker based in Chignin, Savoie. His path to the vineyards began in the world of Michelin-starred gastronomy. He worked as a sommelier at Pierre Orsi in Lyon and at Cordeillan-Bages in Pauillac before helping to found Le Passe Temps, a Korean-French fine dining restaurant in Lyon where, together with chef Younghoon Lee, he became part of the team behind the first Korean-cheffed restaurant in France to earn a Michelin star. The two were also among the first Korean sommeliers to pass the WSET Diploma in France.

When the COVID pandemic forced Le Passe Temps to close, Sukhwan used the disruption to redirect his career. He visited vineyards, enrolled in winemaking training in Beaune, and secured an internship with Emmanuel Houillon of the legendary Domaine Pierre Overnoy in Pupillin, Jura, one of the most influential estates in the natural wine world. That year in the Jura shaped everything that followed. The principles of Overnoy's approach, working without chemical additions, allowing fermentation to proceed with native yeasts, bottling without fining or filtration, using sulfur only when absolutely necessary, became the foundation of Domaine H.

Sukhwan took over a historic estate in Chignin, inheriting parcels that had already been farmed without herbicides for many years before his arrival. He began an organic transition in 2023, his first vintage, and his commitment to no added sulfites was formalized by the 2024 releases. The parcels at Domaine H sit on clay-limestone marl between 1,310 and 1,640 ft elevation, planted primarily with Jacquère, Bergeron (Roussanne), and Mondeuse. In the cellar, Sukhwan vinifies in stainless steel or used barrels sourced from producers including Pascal Côtat, depending on the cuvée. All wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Wine region

Savoie, France

Savoie is one of France's most geographically unusual wine regions, scattered across four Alpine departments in the eastern Rhône-Alpes, with vineyards planted on steep terraced slopes, in sheltered valley corridors, and along the shores of glacial lakes at elevations from roughly 820 to 1,800 ft. The AOP Vin de Savoie is the principal designation, organized around 16 named crus, each tied to specific communes, permitted varieties, and distinct soil profiles shaped by glacial, limestone, and schist geology.

Mondeuse, Savoie's most important indigenous red grape, grows across multiple crus, most notably in Arbin, which has a standalone reputation for the variety, and in Chignin, where Domaine H's parcels sit on the Torméry hillside. DNA analysis has confirmed Mondeuse as a parent variety of Syrah, a genealogical relationship that shows clearly in its aromatic profile: dark-fruited, peppery, firmly structured, with a natural acidity that supports aging well beyond what the grape's modest alcohol levels suggest. When grown at altitude on clay-limestone, as at Chignin, the variety produces wines with finer tannins and more aromatic precision than lower-elevation or warmer-climate expressions.

The Torméry hillside rises steeply above Chignin toward the Bauges Mountains, with south and southwest-facing exposures that collect the sun during long alpine summer days while mountain air keeps night temperatures consistently cool. The diurnal range this creates is one of the key factors behind the freshness and acidity that defines Domaine H's red wines. Soils are clay-limestone marl, with limestone bedrock at depth and a thin topsoil profile that restricts vine vigor and concentrates flavors in the small, thick-skinned Mondeuse berries.

Savoie's position between the Jura to the northwest, Burgundy to the west, and the Rhône to the south has influenced its winemaking culture, with a growing number of producers trained in those regions now farming in alpine terrain with low-intervention techniques that suit the mountain terroir.
