Syrah 3 coups Red 2021,
The nose of this Trois Coups is expressive, laden with red fruits. This fruity sensation continues on the palate: the wine is rich and very balanced. Since it was a rainy year, the tannins are still a little green, but they will polish after two or three years of aging. Trois Coups' aging potential is also very great. It is made from Syrah grown on a plot of loess and granite, with manual harvesting. The grapes are macerated in stainless steel vats, whole bunches, for a good ten days. Punching down the cap is carried out morning and evening during fermentation. Pressing is done in a manual ratchet press. Half of the wine is aged in 220-liter barrels and the other half in stainless steel vats. Bottling takes place in early July, shortly before the following harvest.

La Ferme de l’Arbre is a small four-and-a-half-hectare wine estate located on the right bank of the Rhône, on the Ardèche side, in Tournon-sur-Rhône (near Tain-l’Hermitage). Run for twenty-five years by Christian Lericq and Colette Barrier, it has had its current name since 2021, the year it was expanded. It is mainly located on granite soils with a loess plot. Entirely devoted to natural wine, obtained through organic and biodynamic farming, it currently produces Syrah red wines under the Saint-Joseph and Vin de France appellations. The estate also has a small apiary and produces honey. The vines are tended with herbal teas and nettle manure, and the soil is nourished with compost and manure. The wines are harvested entirely by hand, vatted in whole bunches. Vinification takes place at room temperature and the wines are neither filtered nor fined. The wines are authentic Syrahs from the Rhône Valley, simple and delicious, joyful, convivial and fruity.
Syrah Jamais Malade Red 2021,
That's what they often say about natural wines: the next day, never sick, no hat... Which doesn't prevent you from drinking in moderation, even if it's a magnificent gurgling like this one. The nose is floral, the palate is fresh and light, with a hint of spice on the finish. Jamais Malade is made from Syrah grapes grown on a plot of loess and granite, facing northeast, with hand-harvested grapes. Maceration is semi-carbonic, in wooden and stainless steel vats. Pressing takes place before the end of fermentation, after which the wine is aged in stainless steel vats. Bottling takes place in June.

Syrah Light Red 2016,
A high-flying Syrah. Produced from clay-limestone plots in the Banyuls region, the Syrah Light cuvée is distinguished, as its name suggests, by its freshness and a lightness worthy of a romance novel. Slightly peppery notes appear on the nose, and aromas of blackcurrant and black berries appear on the palate.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.
Syrah Rouge 2017
Domaine des Miquettes
Syrah of course, bursting with fruit and flavor, from an isolated one-hectare plot on granite and black mica soils, at an altitude of 350 meters.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Syrah Rouge 2019,
Domaine des Miquettes
Domaine des Miquettes creatively and passionately combines the terroir and winemaking traditions of the Rhône with those of Georgia, whose viticulture is a model for Paul Estève and Chrystelle Vareille, the estate's founders. Located in Ardèche, south of the Saint-Joseph appellation, Paul trained with René-Jean Dard and François Ribo, two leading figures in natural wine in the Rhône Valley. With Chrystelle, he began by taking over Paul's family farm with two ares of vines, then in 2004 the entire estate, which now covers 4.3 hectares. The white grape varieties are located around the house, while the red grape varieties are planted on steep slopes, between 300 and 450 meters above sea level. The plots rest on a granite base with light soils: black mica granite, schist, and gneiss. Everything is grown organically (Ecocert) using biodynamic practices. The vines are cared for and fortified with plant and clay decoctions. The soils are worked by horse or winch and pickaxe. No chemical inputs are added to the vineyard work. The harvest is entirely manual.
The great specificity of the Domaine des Miquettes remains the use of Georgian techniques, inspired by their passion for this Caucasian country, the cradle of wine, where eight-thousand-year-old winemaking techniques are still used. At the heart of this viticulture is the qvevri, the buried jar where all the winemaking takes place: fermentation with skin maceration and aging. They set out to discover this country and returned with the decision to age all their wines in buried jars. They have twenty-six, but distinguish between tinajas (Spanish jars) for fermentation-maceration and buried "amphorae" for aging. No sulfur is added. For both reds and whites, terracotta erases astringency and transmutes it into a velvety texture, a fruity and supple substance.
A Syrah of noble simplicity. Produced from vines planted in Ardèche, on plots with light soils of black mica granite, schist and gneiss on a granite base, this French wine seduces with a nose of red fruits that continues with a velvety, peppery and raspberry palate.
Tannat Rouge 2020,
Domaine Capmartin
Tannat, as its name suggests, is made entirely from the emblematic grape variety of the Madiran appellation. With no additives or sulfites, it is the natural counterpart to the estate's fine Madirans. The Tannats from which it is made, with an average age of fifteen years and harvested when fully ripe, grow on clay-gravel soils on north-facing plots. The use of cover crops helps loosen the soil and provides nutritional support, alternating with natural grass cover. The harvest is destemmed. Maceration is entirely semicarbonic, followed by pressing in the first third of fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation ends in the liquid phase. Aging is six months in stainless steel vats. This Tannat is already a classic. Simon Capmartin's goal was to create a pure fruit cuvée, to capture the intensity of the grape variety: it is Tannat, picked and bottled. "As little extraction as possible is used; we try to capture the fruit." The profile is quite fresh, but the wine remains quite fleshy and even easy to drink. It is a wine of character, for the table, for eating. A gastronomic wine.

Guy Capmartin settled in 1985 in the former convent of Maumusson-Laguian, in the Gers, to exploit the magnificent surrounding soils, from which he would soon produce highly acclaimed wines in the Madiran and Pacherenc-du-Vic-Bilh appellations. In 1987, Tradition, his first cuvée, was born. Since the 2000s, he has decided to work exclusively in organic and biodynamic agriculture, a decision reinforced and rooted by his son Simon, who took over. The wines have been noted and have received numerous awards. Certification was obtained in 2013, and the Demeter label is in progress. Taking advantage of his most specific plots of the estate, Simon also undertakes to produce natural cuvées, without inputs and according to the principle of minimal interventionism. Labeled Vin de France or Côtes-de-Gascogne, these are the cuvées that we offer you at Culinaries.
The estate's grape varieties are organized around Tannat, the king of Madiran, surrounded by a palette as rich and diverse as the estate's soils: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, a little Syrah and Grenache Noir, plus a few old red vines currently being identified. A plot of tannat, located on a very fine and very supple clay-marl soil with gravel, is pre-phylloxera. For the white, Petit Manseng, Gros Manseng and Petit Courbu, as well as, for the Côtes-de-Gascogne, Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris and Viognier.
The main objective of the Capmartin estate is to make frank, fruity, authentic and honest wines, perfectly reflecting their terroir, which explains the parcel-based nature of the wines under the appellation: one parcel corresponds to one vintage, and vice versa. This also explains the number and variety of vintages.
Temporis Blanc Champagne,
Eric Collinet
This Temporis cuvée, produced by Éric Collinet, is an organic, biodynamic, and natural extra-brut white champagne (AB, Eurofeuille, and Ecocert certified). Sourced from the Riceys terroir in Côte des Bar, it is made from Pinot Noir with 2% Chardonnay.
The Trace of Limestone
The Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines grow on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils, which give the wines minerality and tension. The wines are from the 2018 harvest. The cuvée takes its name from the time it took to wait for it... It is in fact from the 2014 harvest and was disgorged in 2017. Dosage: 4.3 g/l.
A champagne for all occasions
The beautiful, pure gold color with gray highlights is accompanied by a beautifully fruity nose: green pear, mirabelle plum, damson plum. The nose then offers notes of ripe wheat with a touch of brioche. The first contact with the bubbles is delicate, silky, and seductive. On the palate, the aromatic profile confirms the olfactory sensations. This chiseled, complete champagne can be paired with all dishes. Don't rack your brains to pair it as long as you stick to light, seafood and refined cuisine: White meats, fish in creamy sauce, cold-smoked scallops, smoked salmon, caviar, risotto. Best enjoyed at around 10-12°C.

Limousin, established in Southern Champagne "for the love of the land and the king of wines", Éric Collinet devotes himself to viticulture on this land in Les Riceys, in Côte des Bar, combining it with truffle cultivation (Burgundy truffle, Tuber uncinatum). Whether it is vines or mycorrhizal trees, it is the same love of nature and biodiversity that Éric and his wife Martine lavish on 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%. 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. The champagnes from Domaine Collinet are unanimously described as lively and fruity. These are tangy but not unrounded wines, with a lively bubble. A perfect accompaniment to all dishes, a great opportunity to have champagne meals without having to worry too much about the pairings.
Tempranillo y Más Rouge 2007
Bodega Barranco Oscuro
Natural wine without added sulphites.
Tequila Calle 23 Blanco
Vintage Spirit Garage
This first masterpiece by Sophie Decobecq, a young French woman who has lived in Mexico for about fifteen years to make traditional tequila, is a limited production, bottled after double distillation in traditional stills.
Like mezcal, another Mexican spirit, tequila is a product made from the agave plant, a member of the asparagus family (did you know that?) with long, thick, succulent leaves lined with thorns. The plant is almost entirely edible: its flowers (which appear only once in the agave's life), its sap-rich leaves, its sweet flower stems, and its sap, called aguamiel because of its sweetness, are eaten. Sugar is also extracted from it. Since pre-Columbian times, the sap from the flower stem has been transformed into a sweet wine called pulque. Pulque, produced by fermenting aguamiel, is distilled from the heart of the plant, particularly from the blue agave (called agave tequilana), to make tequila. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from around fifteen varieties of agave.
Calle 23 begins with the careful selection of blue agave plants growing on the plateaus of the state of Jalisco, between Tepatitlan and Arandas. After harvesting, the leaves are cut to leave only the core, called a piña because of its resemblance to a large pineapple. The piñas are cooked in large stainless steel autoclaves for about fifteen hours, cooled, and pressed. The resulting aguamiel ferments naturally to become pulque, a step prior to a double distillation in a copper still, until the distillate reaches between 52 and 54 degrees of alcohol. Spring water is then added to bring it down to 40 degrees. Without undergoing any aging, Calle 23 Blanco is ready to bottle.
Crystalline and colorless, it is agave juice in its purest form. On the nose, it evokes agave fresh from the cooking process with its herbaceous notes. On the palate, it attacks with sweetness and mellowness, expressing the characteristic flavor of the plant, complemented on the finish by notes of white fruits (tart apple, pear), almond and fresh walnut. Soft and mellow, devoid of aggressiveness, more velvety than biting, it is a good initiation tequila for those who are still unfamiliar with this beverage. To be enjoyed alone and very cold, or in a cocktail (we no longer present the margarita, see our recipe below), it is incomparable.
How to make a margarita? SOS Culinaries! We will opt for the slush margarita, with crushed ice, because in the end everyone prefers that. You just need a good blender. We advise you to prepare it in large quantities to delight lots of friends. Here we go: for four people, 20 cl of Calle 23 Blanco tequila, 10 cl of Cointreau or Triple Sec, 20 cl of freshly squeezed lime juice, 80 cl of ice cubes, and lime slices for serving. Don't forget 3 tablespoons of fleur de sel for the rim of the glass; it's essential. Start by spreading the salt in a saucer. Rub the rim of the glasses with a lime slice, coat the rim of the glasses with salt, and set aside. In the blender, combine the tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, and ice. Pulsate everything mercilessly until you get a liquid snow of homogeneous texture. Pour into the glasses (without disturbing the salt), garnish with a lime slice, and serve immediately. You can also serve from a pitcher, but the glasses should be salted anyway.
Terre des Anonymes Blanc 2015, Domaine La Sorga
This 100% Colombard white wine comes from the basalt sandy soils of the Hérault Valley, in Adissan. The grapes are vinified in whole bunches for forty-five days, then macerated for eleven months in vats. Its mango notes give it a real affinity with Asian cuisine and seafood such as scallops, cuttlefish, or squid. Its aging potential is ten years.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Terre Mère Rouge 2020,
Clos des B
Provence - Côtes de Provence AOC AOP
Red and especially black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry) abound on the nose and palate. The wine is structured, the tannins are supple and well-blended, and the bitter almond note on the finish is somewhat reminiscent of an Amarone from Valpolicella. One clearly perceives through tasting Terre Mère, which is not named so by chance, the producer's desire to stick to the terroir, to extract its quintessence. This mature and evolved character (15% alcohol) results from particular winemaking methods: Terre Mère, a red in AOP Côtes-de-Provence, is composed of 50% Grenache, 20% Cinsault and 30% Mourvèdre harvested overripe in the second half of September (September 19 in 2020). As biodynamicist Jean-Michel Deiss says, "when the maturity is good, the grape variety disappears and the terroir appears." Vinification is done 90% in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats and 10% in open barrels. Foot punching is carried out, as well as some small pumping over. Malolactic fermentation is complete. The wine is aged in 600-liter barrels and in barrels of several 228-liter wines. No sulfites are added, neither in the vineyard, nor during winemaking, nor bottling.

Clos des B (initials of the two owners, Gwendolyn Berger and Jean-Jacques Branger) is located in Grimaud, in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. They are therefore the proud producers of the very first natural cuvées from this geographical area. Those who know that this region is home to some interesting viticulture will avoid thinking of the celebrity seaside resort and poolside rosé: before the two Bs bought these three hectares of vines, all these wines went to the cooperative cellar of the Vignerons de Saint-Tropez. Driven by a "thirst for vines," as they say, Gwendolyn and Jean-Jacques overcame administrative difficulties, restored the vineyard and soon produced reds, rosés and even a blanc de noirs. Their grape varieties are typical of the region: Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, growing on schistose sands crossed by quartz veins. The property benefits from a microclimate that protects the vines from humidity, disease, and frost. The viticulture and winemaking approach resolutely embraces organic (the estate has been in conversion since 2020), biodynamics, and natural methods. The wines are sulfite-free, unfined, and unfiltered. The wines of Clos des B are a true reflection of their terroir and climate: fresh, fruity, and very pleasant to drink.
Terre Mere Red 2021,
Equipped with the Écocert organic label, Terre Mère is a natural red wine, with no added sulfites, from the Clos des B estate, located in the Bay of Saint-Tropez. Red and especially black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry) abound on the nose and palate. The wine is structured and tannic, but the tannins are supple and well-integrated, and the finish includes a very seductive note of bitter almond. It resembles an Amarone, but without the cooking note, with much more fresh fruit and freshness despite its overripeness. Terre Mère presents a beautiful liveliness upon opening, but we do not recommend decanting. It gains dimension and breadth at the end of the bottle. It comes from the finest grapes, plot by plot and vine by vine, which have been isolated vine by vine to be brought to this overripeness.
Why “Mother Earth”?
The name Mother Earth is a tribute, through the terroir, to Pacha Mama, the great earthly divinity. One clearly perceives through the tasting the producer’s desire to stick to the terroir, to extract its quintessence, in addition to the resolution to add no input to the vineyard or the cellar. This mature and evolved typicity (15% alcohol) results from particular winemaking methods: Mother Earth, a red wine in AOP Côtes-de-Provence, is composed of 50% Grenache, 20% Cinsault and 30% Mourvèdre harvested overripe in September. Vinification is carried out 90% in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats and 10% in open barrels. Foot-punching is performed, as well as a few small pumping overs. Malolactic fermentation is complete. The wine is aged in 600-liter barrels and in 228-liter barrels previously used for several wines. No sulfites are added, neither in the vineyard, nor during vinification, nor at bottling. To discover other wines from the terroirs of Provence, also explore the Domaine des Grandes Serres, in the Southern Côtes-du-Rhône. And to accompany this beautiful wine, why not slice a beautiful sausage from Maison Montalet?

With Tête D’a Fish Blanc 2024, La Tribu Alonso boldly explores the potential of hybrid grape varieties, blending Floréal, Villard, and Alain Bouquet into a cuvée that is as original as it is precise. True to its artisanal approach, the estate delivers a sincere natural wine here, made from vines cultivated without synthetic products and vinified without additives, in total respect for all living things.
This collection of hybrid grape varieties, still too often overlooked, allows for a different interpretation of the terroir and opens up new gustatory perspectives. After fermentation with indigenous yeasts, the wine benefits from 12 months of aging on lees, bringing texture, complexity, and beautiful aromatic depth.
In the glass, the color reveals itself in a pale hue with slightly hazy reflections, a sign of an unfiltered wine. The nose expresses itself with finesse, revealing aromas of white flowers, fresh pear, and a delicate herbaceous touch that evokes nature in its purest form.
On the palate, the attack is lively and precise, driven by a beautiful tension. The profile is resolutely fruity, with a supple yet dynamic body that stretches into a fresh and saline finish. The aging on lees rounds out the whole, offering a subtle balance between energy and deliciousness.
Tête D’a Fish Blanc 2024 naturally finds its place at the table. It perfectly accompanies seafood, grilled fish or fish in light sauces, as well as fresh or aged cheeses. Its tension and freshness also make it an excellent aperitif companion.
With this cuvée, La Tribu Alonso confirms its taste for experimentation and its ability to reveal vibrant, accessible, and deeply rooted natural wines of their time.
The Blanc Blanc 2021,
Patrick Bouju
Auvergne Chardonnay clearly has no fewer stories to tell than that of the terroirs where it is better known: this is a magnificent white wine obtained through skin maceration, aged for eighteen months in barrels. It's a superb wine to drink without hesitation. Boasting a magnificent structure and beautiful complexity, with notes of white fruits (pear, apple), it's particularly suited to food. It will pair well with roasted and grilled dishes: fries, Darphin potatoes, roast chicken, or roasted rack of black pork. Aging potential: ten years. Open twenty minutes before tasting, decant if possible.

Near Billom, the Limagne clermontoise rises towards the east to form a hilly area with a mild climate, dominated by volcanic hills. This is the Auvergne Tuscany, so named because of its resemblance to the Italian province. This land of mixed subsistence farming was once covered with vines and was the preferred domain of Gamay d'Auvergne, a robust ancient strain, the origin of dense, deep and fruity wines. This is where Patrick Bouju cultivates and vinifies, on these high-quality volcanic soils and mainly on old vines. The soils vary between basalt, limestone, clay-limestone and pozzolan. Patrick collects and cares for the best terroirs of Puy-de-Dôme, often abandoned, and gives them new life. He also preserves native grape varieties, of which he cultivates a good fifty, and also works as a wine merchant using purchased organic grapes. The current renaissance of the Auvergne vineyard (which was once the third largest in France) owes a lot to Patrick. The fact that he likes to lend a hand to his winegrower friends in France and elsewhere only confirms his image as a model, a leader. His partnerships are famous: with Action Bronson for the A la Natural series, with Jason Ligas in Greece for Sous le Végétal… Patrick practices long macerations, and the wines rest for up to six months after bottling. Very sensitive to sulfites in wines, Patrick has found that his own wines do very well without them. He has also observed that if the grapes are healthy and concentrated, the balance is achieved on its own, regardless of the successive phases a vintage goes through. His noble, chiseled, distinguished, never bland wines are immediately recognizable in the glass. They are straight, clean, precise, often marked by floral notes and a spicy minerality. They also constitute a formidable anthology of the terroirs and ancient vines of Basse-Auvergne and its volcanic soils.
