Canta is a private cave based in Los Angeles.
We ship to most states, and take local
appointments as well. We used to do
deliveries all over LA, but in reality we are
actually only one person and we got pretty
tired of doing that, so please stop by on
a Friday to pick up your wines, or write
to schedule another day. We take our
selections pretty seriously and only offer
what we ourselves have open on the
table most evenings. All wines are organized
above by producer, first name alphabetically,
and new arrivals sit on top of the photo roll.
Please write us with any questions or to build
an order. You can read a little bit more
about Canta here.
We are also available for restaurant
consultation and party + event curation.
Please get in touch with any interest.

Les Freres Soulier
Gard, France
The brothers Soulier, in my mind at least, represent a changing of the guard—in the Gard—from the old school naturalist vibe of Eric Pfifflering's l'Anglore estate to their now new school, sleeked out minimalist, dare I say designer aesthetic. Looking at the embossed jet black Valmal label, I'm visualizing these guys walking around town just after a press in shiny black leather pants purchased from their last trip to Paris, but maybe I'm just letting my imagination get the best of me here. Les Freres Soulier seem to be as serious as ever these days, with a focus on directly pressed red varietals, rather than the majority richer more bodied wines of their earlier days. Designer or not, Valmal is pretty heady stuff as far as the Gard is concerned, and as the old adage goes, will certainly only loosen up its current restraint a bit and find its essence with time. Honestly though, it's great now. Botrytis too, an early October pick of nobly rotten Carignan that reminds of Pinot or Gamay from elsewhere—a sick wine to blind your know it all friends on.
