Canoupe Blanc 2022,
Danis dans la vigne
Canoupe is a white wine from Cahors made from organic and natural Colombard grapes, produced in Vin de France by Danis Bessières of Danis dans la vigne. It is a beautiful white from the Southwest of France with very advanced maturity. It is part of the "Esprit du lieu" range of single-plot cuvées vinified by Danis. Its name expresses the vigor and vitality of the estate's Colombards: "plant spears that reach for the sky." At the beginning of summer, the vine rises into vigorous foliage, like a canopy, hence the name Canoupe.
Vinification
Canoupe is not a white wine like the others. This single-plot cuvée was vinified with particular attention to the ripeness of the grapes, which is very advanced. Botrytis plays an important role, particularly in the color, which is sustained despite the direct pressing. A little controlled oxidation is also present.
Tasting
The style of Canoupe is intermediate, between freshness and maturity, with ripe aromas, candied citrus fruits, honeysuckle, spices: cardamom, cinnamon, Christmas spices. The color tends towards orange and the aromas are similar. Candied, jammy, with a touch of oxidation. A complex and powerful wine that is best reserved for the table and gastronomy rather than as an aperitif.
Learn more about Danis dans la vigne
Under the name Danis dans la vigne, Danis Bessières vinifies organic grapes from the family estate, the Domaine de l'Antenet, which was the first organic vineyard in Cahors in the early 1980s.
Organic and natural since 1983
Danis respects the principles established in the vineyard and cellar by his grandfather and then his father: making wines without additives, organic and natural, from the grape varieties of the terroir while respecting the environment. It was in 1983 that his grandfather obtained the organic label Lemaire-Boucher, followed by Nature & Progrès and then the organic labels AB and Eurofeuille. Danis Bessières continues in this vein.
Malbec, but not only
Malbec reigns supreme in the Cadurcian region, but Danis also uses Cabernets, Jurançon Noir, Merlot, and recently created grape varieties, as well as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Colombard as single-varietals. These experiments allow him to moderate the density and opacity of the main grape variety.
Canoupe Blanc 2023
Danis dans la vigne
A vibrant white from the Southwest, with dazzling freshness
Canoupe 2023 is an ode to lightness and vibrancy. Behind this cuvée is Danis dans la vigne, a young estate committed to organic farming in the still confidential terroir of Cahors, in the heart of the Southwest. Here, Colombard, an aromatic and often underestimated grape variety, is showcased in a pure, direct, and deeply refreshing version.
Vinified by direct pressing, without enological inputs, with only indigenous yeasts, this natural white is aged for 8 months in stainless steel tanks, to preserve the most sincere expression of the fruit. The clay-limestone soil brings tension and minerality to the whole, and the low alcohol content (11.5%) enhances its drinkability. This is far from the heavy clichés of the Southwest: here, everything exudes agility, transparency, and sincerity.
Expressive nose and dazzling palate
Upon opening, the nose immediately seduces with aromas of fresh citrus, yellow lemon, enhanced by delicate touches of orange blossom. On the palate, the texture is fluid, tense, with a beautiful natural acidity that calls for one sip after another. It is an ideal aperitif wine, but also a formidable companion for white meats, grilled fish, or even exotic dishes with lemony flavors.
This 100% natural Colombard can be enjoyed today, without decanting, at 10-12°C, but can also evolve gently over 2 years. A luminous, joyful, and sincere cuvée, perfect for those looking to rediscover the Southwest in a different way.
Cardonohay Blanc 2012
Bodega Barranco Oscuro
This Chardonnay comes from a plot planted at an altitude of 1,300 meters, on schist and clay soils. The harvest ferments in stainless steel vats and is aged for ten months in old barrels.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.
Cariboom Rouge 2020,
Domaine de l'Octavin
Carignan and Grenache, cultivated by Claude Ughetto in Saint-Pierre-de-Vassols (Vaucluse) and vinified in Arbois by Alice Bouvot, explode on the palate, resulting in Cariboom! The Carignan (50% of the blend) macerates for twenty days in whole bunches, while the Grenache macerates for five weeks. The semicarbonic maceration of the whole bunches gives Cariboom! an undeniable freshness, fruit, and sap. Pretty purplish-ruby color and tangy notes of blueberry, cherry, blackberry, blackcurrant, and cranberry. Fruity, juicy, airy lightness, and atypical fruitiness. On the finish, licorice and bay leaf mingle with cinnamon: Cariboom! is very complex despite its great drinkability.

"You don't need anything," says Alice Bouvot, winemaker at Domaine de l'Octavin, "just a grape that feels good in its skin." Everything is said in favor of natural wine; it's a perfect description. Created in 2005, Domaine d'Alice is located in Arbois, in the Jura wine region, often described as the most organic vineyard in France. The practice of making—among other things—oxidative wines is a good preparation for natural wine, as this type of wine does not allow any chemical additives, and especially no sulfites. It's a secret of this magnificent region. Originally spread over two hectares, the estate, managed entirely biodynamically (Demeter) since 2010, has expanded through the gradual acquisition of plots and now covers seven hectares.
An accomplished musician and passionate music lover, Alice intends to apply her musical sensitivity to the wines she makes. She draws a parallel between the technical perfection of conventional wines, which risks excluding feeling, while "a musician who does not know music theory and plays with his guts creates emotion." For her, living wine is like this: instinctive, improvised, emotional. Introduced to natural wine by Stéphane Planche, sommelier at chef Jean-Paul Jeunet in Arbois, she will faithfully follow this path. The sometimes whimsical titles of her vintages are inspired sometimes by musical art (Dorabella, Zerline), sometimes by the numerous plots of land that make up her vineyard (En Curon, Les Corvées, En Poussot, etc.), and do not disdain a pun from time to time. Likewise, the labels adorned with happy and salacious little gnomes are a signature of the estate. As for the grape varieties, they are the classics of the Jura - Poulsard, Trousseau, Pinot Noir for the reds, and Chardonnay, Savagnin for the whites. Alongside her Arbois wines, Alice has created a business of "on the vine" grapes (Ecocert certified) with her winegrower friends from the region. Natural, committed, joyful and highly drinkable, the wines of Alice Bouvot are all the more coveted as the vintages, produced in plot-by-plot mode, appear, disappear and reappear depending on the vintage and inspiration.
Carignan Red 2014,
Made from 130-year-old Carignan vines growing in a complex blend of clay, silica, mica-rich schist, quartz, and gneiss, this wine undergoes extended aging.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.
Casa Rossa Rouge 2020
Jean Yves Peron
Casa Rossa, a red or rather rosé wine leaning towards red, is none other than the Italian version of Vers laMaison rouge. This is an organic, biodynamic, and natural wine made from three grape varieties: Grignolino, Freisa, and Barbera.
Vinification
The organic grapes that make up Casa Rossa are harvested in Casale Monferrato, in Piedmont. Grignolino and Freisa are directly pressed, and Barbera undergoes carbonic maceration. The three grape varieties are blended before a year of aging in 300-liter barrels. This period is followed by a year of bottle aging.
Tasting
Casa Rossa is a rosé that is not far from a red. The tangy Barbera grape brings liveliness; Grignolino and Freisa (so named for its strong strawberry aromas) give a vinous side that makes Casa Rossa a beautiful winter wine, not a summer rosé. The wine is fruity, vinous, tangy, aromatic and very tasty. It's delicious on its own, but let's also make sure it doesn't go badly with a good dish of Italian pasta with a nice tomato or Bolognese sauce, a delicious charcuterie from the Ferme de Mayrinhac or even a rabbit stew.
In learn more about Jean-Yves Péron
Jean-Yves Péron is a talented embodiment of the organic, biodynamic, and natural renaissance of the Savoyard vineyard, which is based on varied soils and numerous indigenous grape varieties (Jacquère, Altesse, Mondeuse, etc.). At his winery in Chevaline, in the Bauges region, he vinifies the grapes from his plots in Conflans, near Albertville, and Fréterive, in the Isère valley.
High-altitude biodynamics
Jean-Yves Péron's work follows the principles of minimal intervention. On narrow, steep surfaces, his mountain vines in micro-plots, worked by hand, receive no synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. The grapes are vatted in whole bunches and undergo semi-carbonic maceration. Shortly before pressing, they are foot-trodden in the vat, then sent to barrels of two or three wines for aging for twelve months on lees, before blending and resting in the vat. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.
Italian-Savoyard trade
Since 2011, a trading activity has allowed Jean-Yves Péron to buy the harvest from neighboring organic winegrowers and to collaborate with winegrowers from Northern Italy: this is the I Vicini series, which allows him to diversify the terroirs and deepen his experiences in winemaking and aging.
Casa Rossa Red 2022
Casa Rossa, a red or rather rosé wine leaning towards red, is none other than the Italian version of Vers la Maison rouge, a Savoyard cuvée by Jean-Yves Péron. It is an organic, biodynamic, and natural wine made from three grape varieties: Grignolino, Freisa, and Barbera.
Vinification
The organic grapes that make up Casa Rossa are harvested in Casale Monferrato, in Piedmont. The Barbera and Freisa undergo direct pressing, and the Grignolino undergoes carbonic maceration with a two-month cap-punching. The three grape varieties are blended before a year of aging in 300-liter barrels. This period is followed by a year of bottle aging.
Tasting
Jean-Yves Péron's Casa Rossa is a rosé that's not far from a red. The tangy Barbera grape brings liveliness; the Grignolino and Freisa (so named for their strong strawberry aromas) give a vinous side that makes Casa Rossa a beautiful winter wine, not a summer rosé. The wine is fruity, tangy, aromatic, and very delicious. It goes well on its own and with accompaniments (pasta, Italian dishes, etc.).

Casébianco Blanc 2020,
Domaine Casé
On the fertile clay-limestone soils of Val Trebbia in Emilia-Romagna, Alberto Anguissola founded the Casè estate in 1998. He first learned viticulture from the region's most experienced winemakers and finally embraced his passion by first planting a small amount of Pinot Noir around his grandparents' country house. Later, he bought fifty- or sixty-year-old vines abandoned by their owners and expanded the estate. The plots are located at an altitude of over six hundred meters and the grape varieties, in addition to the Pinot Noir and Marsanne that Alberto planted, are resolutely local: Barbera, Bonarda, Croatina, Malvasia, Ortrugo, Moscato Bianco… What motivates this winemaker is a passion for winemaking, but also for the kind of life and society that this model of traditional viticulture implies. He does not allow any chemical inputs, whether in the vineyard or in the cellar, and strives to keep the land as healthy as possible for nature and for man. Love for the local winemaking tradition plays a large part in his choices, for example the use of large wooden barrels for fermentation, a thousand-year-old technique that the historian Strabo had already described in the 1st century BC.
Casèbianco is a magnificent orange wine like the ones Emilia-Romagna and particularly Alberto know how to produce. Made from four white grape varieties (Ortrugo, Malvasia, Marsanne and White Muscat) planted on the same plot alongside red grape varieties (a common practice in the region), this wine is a superb expression of the soil and tradition: the ten-day skin maceration gives a surprising result, sweet and fruity aromas combined with pronounced floral notes and the dryness typical of orange wine. This nectar for the table awaits Italian or Mediterranean dishes, wild mushrooms, charcuterie and cured meats, spit-roasted rabbit with garlic and thyme.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Cathédrale Rouge 2020
Danis dans la Vigne
A monumental cuvée, balancing verticality and finesse
With Cathédrale 2020, Danis dans la vigne has created a powerful, complex, and meditative wine, reflecting its evocative name. This exceptional cuvée blends Malbec and Cabernet Franc, two noble grape varieties from the Southwest, grown in clay-limestone soil cultivated organically. A natural, lively wine, free of oenological additives, that embraces the long haul: 3 years of aging in barrels, topped up only once a year, in a deliberate oxidative approach, followed by a year of rest in stainless steel tanks, then a year of refinement in the bottle.
A rare and demanding process that gives birth to a wine with a deep aromatic profile, a silky texture, and remarkable complexity, capable of gracefully enduring through the years.
A noble, ample, patinated wine
From the first glance, the dark robe with garnet reflections announces the wine's richness. The nose opens with stewed black and red fruits, evolving into notes of toasted almond, cocoa, sweet spices, and undergrowth. On the palate, the texture is dense, velvety, but never heavy. The Cabernet Franc brings a welcome freshness that balances the power of the Malbec. The long and harmonious finish reveals a saline and slightly smoky touch.
Cathédrale 2020 is a gastronomic cuvée par excellence, designed for ambitious pairings: red meats, feathered game, truffle dishes, or even certain aged cheeses. Serve between 16 and 18°C, with no need for decanting. This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for 10 years or more.
CC Blanc 2022,
Auvergne Chardonnay in its finest expression
With the CC 2022 vintage, Patrick Bouju offers a natural Chardonnay produced with respect for the volcanic terroir of the Auvergne region. Vinified using direct pressing and aged for 15 months in stainless steel vats, this wine captures the purity and energy of the region's clay-limestone and basalt soils.
Tasting: Defined elegance
The CC 2022 seduces with its delicate aromas of white fruits, citrus fruits, and vine flowers. On the palate, a beautiful liveliness is balanced by a subtle roundness. The finish, saline and mineral, reflects the unique character of the Auvergne terroir.
Food and wine pairing: subtlety and finesse
This Chardonnay will pair perfectly with grilled fish, seafood or creamy dishes like a parmesan risotto. It can also enhance soft cheese or roast poultry.
Aging potential
Enjoy it now, but it can also be kept for up to 5 years, to gain depth and complexity.
Ceci n'est pas un vin White 2023
Ceci n'est pas un vin is still a wine, white, dry, organic, and natural, with no added sulfites. Made in Beaujolais by Cyril of La Tribu Alonso, it is classified as a Vin de France. It is 100% Chardonnay, but there are twenty-eight different varieties in the bottle. Just as the red wine Ambre dissolve is inspired by Salvador Dalí, this one obviously alludes to Henri Magritte (see the label).
Vinification
The collection of twenty-eight Chardonnays from the ampelothèque, from which Ceci n’est pas un vin is made, is planted on a half-hectare plot on granite, with wild grass, agroforestry and no tillage. The vines, pruned in the goblet style, are between four and thirty years old. There are Chardonnays here of all tastes and colors (white, pink, muscaté, etc.), and it seems that the multiplicity of grape varieties gives a whole new face to this Chardonnay, unfortunately a little overused in the world of viticulture. "We are moving away from the boring Chardonnay," says Cyril. The manual harvest goes into direct pressing and, after a 48-hour settling process, only sees from the vat to its bottling. Alcoholic fermentation without starter culture using indigenous yeasts, malolactic fermentation also in fiberglass vats. Zero chemical inputs, in the vineyard and in the cellar, and zero added sulfites.
Tasting
Surprisingly, Ceci n’est pas un vin: the opposite of classic Chardonnay, it has great qualities of resistance. Solid, fine and balanced. A dry white wine with no added sulfites that has a very long shelf life once opened, it is rare and unique. It can last, recorked, for a whole week. On the nose and palate, it is a marvel of perfume and aroma, as if it offered the quintessence of Chardonnay through all its varieties. Salty, iodized, aromatic and floral, it evokes peach or apricot blossom, white peach, and its acidity-alcohol balance will allow it to be kept between 5 and 7 years. It can be drunk whenever you want, with oysters, shellfish, raw or smoked fish, tapas, fine starters and any elegant and refined cuisine.
Learn more about the Alonso Tribe
This tribal name refers to Cyril Alonso, winemaker, his wife, naturopath, and their family. They take care, using organic farming methods, of a conservatory of traditional grape varieties from the Rhône-Alpes region located in Marchampt (Rhône), in the heart of the Beaujolais Vert region. This two-and-a-half-hectare ampel library, which has existed since 1952, contained forty grape varieties. It currently contains one hundred and forty. This unique location gives the Tribu Alonso wines their particular style. Instead of being single-varietal microcuvées, they are quite the opposite: wines by grape variety family, either a Chardonnay containing all the Chardonnays of the house or a multi-Gamay Gamay.
A biotope classified in 2008
The estate enjoys a unique ecological location: the house and the vineyard are surrounded by untouched forests, on the steep terrain of northern Beaujolais. Three rivers cross it, and the vines, close to the bedrock, capture all the minerality of the soil. Organic farming is practiced and the work, both in the vineyard and in the cellar, is entirely manual, without the use of any chemical additives or sulfites in the winemaking process.
The wines
Cuvées of co-plantation (and for good reason), the wines of the Tribu Alonso embrace all the complexity of their grape varieties and the viticultural history of Beaujolais. These are carefully crafted wines, made with great care, fermented and aged to the sound of Tibetan bowls, whose alpha waves are beneficial to the liquids. The vatting periods are short, to preserve the freshness and fruit, as well as the signature of the soil and grape varieties.
Cep Bragelogne Blanc Champagne Brut
Eric Collinet
This Cep cuvée is an organic, biodynamic, and natural white brut champagne (Ecocert, AB, and Eurofeuille certifications) made from 100% Pinot Noir, from the vines of the Éric Collinet estate in Côte des Bar, the southernmost region of Champagne. Since 2014, this estate has been fully certified organic.
Terroir and Vinification
The Pinot Noir vines grow on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils, bringing minerality and tension to the wines. Harvesting is done by hand. The wines are from the 2018 harvest. Dosage: 3.8 g/l.
An all-terrain champagne
Lively, fresh, and flavorful, this champagne, balanced between minerality and fruitiness, is a complete wine, ready for all combinations and pairings. The nose offers fresh white fruits, apple, and lychee, confirmed on the palate with a superb integration of all the sensations. Great evolving complexity. Pair it with a good meal or fine tapas. We also imagine a marriage of love with raw fish, smoked scallops, smoked salmon, caviar … Enjoy it between 10 and 12 °C.
Learn more about Éric Collinet champagnes
Limousin established in Southern Champagne “for the love of the land and the king of wines”, Éric Collinet devotes himself to viticulture on his land in Les Riceys, in Côte des Bar, combining it with a truffle cultivation activity (Burgundy truffle, Tuber uncinatum). Whether it's vines or mycorrhizal trees, Éric and his wife Martine share the same love of nature and biodiversity in their estate.
Champagne Agroforestry
On sloping land, planting trees in the vines helps to anchor them and compensate for water loss during increasingly hot summers. The dominant grape variety is Pinot Noir, a regional tradition, with Chardonnay making up 20% of the total. The entire estate (2.5 hectares of vines) has been managed organically (AB, Eurofeuille, Ecocert) and biodynamically since 2014.
The charm of the Côte des Bar
A remarkable freshness and salinity, a well-known signature of the Kimmeridgian limestone of the Côte des Bar, the "emerging" region of Champagne. Domaine Collinet's champagnes are unanimously described as lively and fruity. These wines are tangy but not lacking in roundness, with a lively bubble. Perfect for pairing with any dish, a great opportunity to enjoy Champagne meals without having to worry too much about pairing them.
Cerreto Blanc 2020, La Vinicola di Antonio Gismondi
Cerreto is a lively and fresh wine with a pale yellow color and an acidic, lemony nose with hints of white flowers. The nose is fruity (lemon zest), as is the palate: the citrus fruits linger, the minerality asserts itself. A good companion for seafood, shellfish, and raw fish. Cerreto is made from Malvasia di Candia vines, a grape variety also known as Uva di Cerreto. This name specifically covers a very old local grape variety that is even said to be indigenous and is actually a clone of Malvasia di Candia. The vines grow on clayey plots facing southwest. Skin maceration lasts four to five days in stainless steel vats, followed by pressing and aging for six to ten months in stainless steel vats. No added sulfites, no filtration.
Learn more
Antonio Gismondi's azienda is located in Cerreto Sanita, in the Benevento region of Campania. A microclimate gives this area an almost continental feel: humid winds from the Tyrrhenian Sea collide with the first ramparts of the Apennine mountain range, causing condensation in the air and lowering temperatures, which are significantly cooler and more humid than on the coast. If we add a thermal inversion phenomenon between day and night, common in the Apennine climate, the freshness of the wines from the Antonio Gismondi estate is nothing mysterious in this southern Italy, which is known for its very hot climate. The estate is family-run: for generations, the Gismondi family has cultivated vines and made wine using the most traditional and natural methods, to which are added biodynamic techniques. For a long time, of the fifteen tons of grapes produced each year, one ton was reserved for on-site winemaking for family consumption, with the rest going to the local wine cooperative. It was a meeting with Massimo Marchiori and Antonella de Partida Creus that led Antonio and his wife Anabel to start producing natural wines at home from the entire harvest. The two-hectare vineyard is located between 350 and 380 meters above sea level, on clay and stony soils, with two-thirds facing due south. The grape varieties are Merlot, Freisa, and Sangiovese for the reds, and Falanghina and Malvasia di Candia for the whites.
