Louis D'armont French Red
Rhone and Burgundy reds poured in Commack for three decades.
The story behind Louis D'armont
Louis D'armont is a French label, not a chateau. It works across the Rhone and Burgundy, and the wines tell you which region you are drinking before you finish the first glass. The Cotes du Rhone is a Southern Rhone blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault, fermented the traditional way and built for dark fruit and supple tannins. The Bourgogne is Pinot Noir, leaner and savory, the kind of red that rewards a cool cellar and a roast bird.
Founding records for the commercial label are not published by the producer, so we will not invent a year or a founder. What we can tell you is what the bottle does. The Rhone opens at 60 to 65 degrees and drinks well above its price. The Burgundy asks for patience and gives back earth and red cherry. We have sold both across this counter for years.

Which Louis D'armont is right for you?
Pricing here is honest. The Louis D'armont Cotes Du Rhone 750mL and the Beaujolais Villages 750mL both list at $11.99, which is weekday red money for a wine that behaves like a Sunday bottle. Step up to the Bourgogne Pinot Noir at $17.99 when you want Pinot Noir with actual Burgundy on the label, and take the Cotes Du Rhone 1.5L at $19.98 for the table that keeps refilling glasses. Every one of these sits under twenty dollars. Call (631) 343-7200 to check current stock before you drive over.
Under twelve dollars, opens with lamb, sausage or ratatouille without a decant.
Real Pinot Noir from Burgundy at $17.99, savory and light enough for salmon.
Magnum format at $19.98 keeps a dinner party poured without a second trip.
