Livia (exclusive vintage) White 2022,

Sous le Végétal
Livia is an organic, biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from the island of Samos (Greece) whose mineral profile reflects the salinity of schist and the freshness of quartz. It is part of Patrick Bouju's "Sous le Végétal" project, exclusively for Culinaries. The iodized aromas of the Muscat à petits grains are elegant, refined, and persistent, without the heaviness that this grape variety sometimes presents. Livia is a long and full-bodied wine, prolonged by a delicious finish. Decanting is recommended. It will shine as an accompaniment to high-end seafood products such as smoked salmon from Lionel Durot or with the specialties of Caviar de Neuvic.

Cultivation and vinification
The vines, pruned in goblet form, are cultivated using organic farming and in conversion to permaculture on schist, quartz and limestone soils not far from the village of Pagondas, on the foothills of Mount Karvounis. The harvest is destemmed before maceration, a light crushing allows the extraction of the free-run juice which ferments without pumping over, aeration or stabilization. Only settling and topping up are carried out. Vinification is carried out half in 500-liter Stockinger barrels and half in 5,000-liter stainless steel vats. Livia is a natural wine without additives, unfiltered, bottled by gravity and aged in black bottles sealed with wax.

Beneath the plant lies the mineral: this is the meaning of this concept of natural vintages exclusively for Culinaries, created in Greece, on the island of Samos, by a team gathered around Patrick Bouju. Sous le Végétal also takes under its wing the vintages A la Natural signed Patrick Bouju.

History
Sous le Végétal marks the rebirth of the thousand-year-old vineyard of this island in the eastern Aegean Sea with its dense, wooded vegetation. This rich plant life covers a unique and varied subsoil: volcanic rocks (basalts), limestone, quartz, pink granites, schists, iron cast iron... In Sous le Végétal, the winemakers of Samos rediscover the wine they made in their childhood, proving once again that natural wine allows, through innovative projects, to reconnect with forgotten traditions.

Grape varieties and vinification
Four of the seven vintages of Sous le Végétal — Livia, Hüpnos, Octave, Palli & Genesia and Auguste — are produced on around sixty plots of Samos muscat à petits grains between 400 and 910 meters above sea level. The other vintages, Auguste, Alexandre and Sémélé, are respectively based on avgoustiatis, asyrtiko and a blend of Samos muscat and avgoustiatis. Each plot is vinified separately. Four types of winemaking containers are used: amphorae, concrete eggs, stainless steel vats, and 500-liter barrels. Each plot is vinified in at least two of the four containers, and the wine is aged in black, wax-sealed bottles. No sulfur is added or filtration is performed.

Sereibroc Red 2015

La Sorga

Sereibroc is Corbières in reverse. Centuries-old Carignan vines and a few Grenache vines, both growing on red clay soils well exposed to the sun and the tramontane winds, produced this powerful yet fresh wine, with lovely acidity, beautiful animal notes, and earthy, fruity, and candied aromas (cocoa, prune, fig). The harvest macerates for ninety days in concrete vats, and the wine spends two years in bottles. Extended decanting is recommended.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Bergeron Ergastoline White - 2019

Patrick Bouju

For this 100% Bergeron (another name for Roussanne) from Savoie terroirs, the vinification is by Patrick Bouju and the label by Aurélien Lefort. Skin-on maceration with finesse, great polish and complexity. A rare bottle full of character, one to be enjoyed.

Mercurey Les Vignes Blanches Qvevris Red 2019,

Frédéric Cossard

This Mercurey Les Vignes Blanches Qvevris 2019, by Frédéric Cossard, is a pure and unique interpretation of this exceptional Côte Chalonnaise appellation. Through an entirely natural approach and qvevri vinification, it reveals a rare expression of Pinot Noir, marked by finesse and depth.

The Mercurey AOC enhanced by qvevri vinification

Located in Burgundy, the Mercury AOC is one of the most prestigious in the Côte Chalonnaise, renowned for its reds elegant and structured. Here, Frédéric Cossard goes further by exploring an ancestral method: fermentation and aging in buried terracotta jars, as in Georgia. This bold choice promotes gentle micro-oxygenation, giving the wine a velvety texture and great aromatic purity.

A natural, full-bodied, and refined Pinot Noir

Produced through whole-bunch maceration, this Mercurey reveals a complex nose of morello cherries, black fruits, and delicate notes of roasted. On the palate, it impresses with its sap, fullness and density, supported by tannins of remarkable finesse. The clay-limestone terroir provides balance and freshness, while a year of aging in qvevri refines its airy character.

A wine for gastronomy and aging

Served at 16-18°C, this Mercurey will pair wonderfully with a grilled rib-eye steak, beef fillet en croute, or roast duck. Natural, with no added sulfites, it can be enjoyed now for its vibrant fruit or aged for 5 to 10 years to reveal its full complexity. A rare and sought-after wine, a testament to the talent of Frédéric Cossard.

G&M White 2022,

Patrick Bouju

G&M (Grenache-Muscat and many other things) is an organic and natural dry white wine produced in Auvergne by Patrick Bouju, a maceration cuvée without added sulfites, vinified from grapes from Languedoc and Auvergne. It demonstrates all the winemaker's expertise through organic white grape varieties from various sources. Classified as a Vin de France, this is a very complete wine, adaptable to all occasions.

In the vineyard and in the cellar

To obtain G&M, Patrick Bouju blended Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris, Viognier from Pézenas, Muscat d'Alexandrie from Canet-en-Roussillon, Ugni Blanc and Grenache Gris from Pinet in Languedoc, and finally Chardonnay from Auvergne from his own vineyards. This is a maceration cuvée vinified in vats and terracotta amphorae.

Tasting

G&M offers a superb balance between opulence, perfume, liveliness and acidity. It is a rich and complex orange wine in its blend which is similar to the grand écart in the variety of provenances which in no way compromise the unity of the vintage, harmonized by aging in vats and terracotta. It goes with everything, including White Meats, poultry, fish, hot starters, mature cheeses or flaky pastries.

Near Billom, the Auvergne Tuscany, once covered in vines, is the privileged domain of Gamay d'Auvergne, an ancient strain of the grape variety. It is here, on these volcanic soils, that Patrick Bouju works, mainly with old vines.

Viticulture and trade

Patrick breathes new life into the often abandoned terroirs of Puy-de-Dôme and its indigenous grape varieties. Under the La Bohème estate, he operates as a wine merchant using purchased organic grapes. His exclusive Culinaries partnerships are famous: with Action Bronson for the series A la Natural, with Jason Ligas in Greece for Sous le Végétal…

A winemaker who lends a helping hand

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 winemaker friends in France and elsewhere only confirms his image as a role model, a leader. Its noble, chiseled, distinguished, never trivial wines are immediately recognizable in the glass.

Morgon Côte du Py Red 2020,

Les En Hauts

Plum, cherry, flesh, structure: this is a Gamay that's full of Morgon, and for good reason. Juice, sap, gurgling, and pleasure: the famous Côte du Py has struck again, with all its spices, fruit, and overflowing minerality. This is the result of the combined work of winemakers Damien Coquelet and Frédéric Cossard. This wine is the result of semi-carbonic maceration of whole bunches, and is aged for ten months in concrete eggs.

Les En-Hauts is not strictly speaking a wine estate but a project of vintages produced in partnership between Damien Coquelet and Frédéric Cossard. These two great figures of Burgundy viticulture—yes, Beaujolais is in Burgundy—had every reason to join forces to produce colorful and flavorful vintages together.
Frédéric Cossard is a biodynamic and natural star of Burgundy winemaking, who gives voice to the terroirs and Burgundy wines, undeformed by agricultural chemicals. His vintages are pure and elegant without artifice and are among the most sought-after in Burgundy. His practice is not limited to Burgundy, as vintages are made from grapes purchased in other regions. His vines are tended according to the principles of biodynamics: homeopathic treatments based on essential oils, copper, and sulfur in minimal doses. The harvest is entirely manual, carried out at full maturity. Damien Coquelet, for his part, is the worthy successor of the great organic winemakers to whom we owe the advent of nature in the Beaujolais region: he is the son-in-law of Georges Descombes, and Jean Foillard was his mentor, who continued the pioneering work of Jules Chauvet and Marcel Lapierre. Owning nine hectares in Morgon on granite-sandy soils, he cultivates two and a half hectares plus a few leased vines: in all, four hectares on the legendary Côte du Py. A specialist in Morgons qui morgonnant and Chiroubles qui chiroublent, he embodies the true nature of Beaujolais.

Combe du Temps White 2021,

Les Vignes du Domaine du Temps

La Combe du Temps Blanc is a cuvée from Les Vignes du Domaine du Temps, in Cabardès (Languedoc). Full-bodied and expressive, it is lively and dry with a lovely hint of melted wood. Elegance and a slightly rich note are traits found in all the whites from this estate. Its balance will delight everyone and open up numerous flavor pairings. The blend combines the North, West, and South: 60% Chenin, 20% Roussanne, and 20% Sémillon. Everything ferments naturally, using indigenous yeasts, and La Combe du Temps is aged for a year in old oak barrels. No sulfites are added.

The Domaine du Temps is located in Cabardès, a small region of Languedoc that was once a subdivision of Cathar Country. Stretching from the southern slope of the Montagne Noire to the city of Carcassonne, it is bordered to the west by the Lauragais and to the east by the Minervois. Hilly, wild, and rich in Mediterranean flora, it is a preserved ecosystem, especially since the Domaine du Temps, in the Font Juvénal area, is a magical place: around a former 18th-century priory, sixty hectares of forests and scrubland protect thirteen hectares of vineyards on stony clay-limestone soils. The balance between dryness and coolness is a boon for viticulture, with a wide range of grape varieties. In addition to the Languedoc grape varieties (Syrah, Grenache, Roussanne, Viognier, Muscat), Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Sémillon, and Chenin are grown. The estate has been Ecocert certified since 1998, is entirely managed biodynamically, and has been dedicated to natural wine since 2015. The work in the vineyard and cellar is methodical, rigorous, and attentive: only the best grapes are kept, resulting in small yields, and destemming is determined based on the ripeness of the bunch. The reds are vinified using carbonic maceration of individual grape varieties, with the blending taking place before the year's aging. The whites are slowly and gently pressed to extract only the best from the grapes. These precautions produce smooth, controlled wines of great integrity, with very supple tannins. They are fresh, delicious, and expressive.

Alberto López Calvo - Vino Tinto (Red) 2010

Bodegas Coruña del Conde
Alberto López Calvo, the estate's historic Bordeaux-style vintages are made from Tempranillo (75%), followed by Cabernet Sauvignon (20%) and Merlot (5%). These are beautiful wines with an intense garnet red color, elegant, complex, deep, and silky, with well-integrated tannins.

Mercurey Les Vignes Blanches Qvevris Red 2020,

Frédéric Cossard

Fresh, wild, and intense, this Mercurey is definitely a pleasure to drink with abandon. Morello cherries, black fruits, cherry, raspberry, and complexity on the nose give way to floral, then mineral and roasted notes. On the palate, there is plenty of sap, fullness, and density, with silky, melted tannins of great finesse, completely devoid of harshness. The finish is long, fruity, and distinguished. Les Vignes Blanches is a Mercurey vineyard where Frédéric Cossard is producing his third vintage. For the occasion, the winemaker vinified and aged it in qvevri (a Georgian-style buried jar), which rounds it out and accentuates its velvety texture and depth. Perfect for entrecôte, filet of beef en croûte, and roast duck.

Through his entirely natural work, Frédéric Cossard gives voice to the terroirs and Burgundy wines, undeformed by agricultural chemicals. Having observed, during his years of trading, the existence of harmful wine-growing practices, the winemaker used this counter-example to practice unadulterated viticulture. Thus, he produces vintages of purity and elegance without artifice that are among the most sought-after in Burgundy. Frédéric worked for some time as a wine broker before creating the domaine de Chassorney with his partner Laure in 1996: initially a few ares of vines in Saint-Romain, Auxey-Duresses and Savigny-lès-Beaune, and currently ten hectares spread across the Nuits-Saint-Georges, Pommard, Volnay, Bourgogne-Hautes-Côtes-de-Beaune and Bourgogne appellations. In 2006, he created his own wine trading house and buys organic grapes to vinify, according to his style and convictions, great vintages such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, Pommard, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Chambolle-Musigny, Vosne-Romanée and several Beaujolais crus. The practice is not limited to Burgundy, as vintages are made from grapes purchased in the Jura, Languedoc, and elsewhere. At his farm, the soil and vines are worked as naturally as possible: regular horse-drawn ploughing, no addition of chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The vines are tended according to biodynamic principles: homeopathic treatments based on essential oils, copper, and sulfur in minimal doses. The harvest is entirely manual, carried out at full maturity, at the end of October. Red or white, classic Burgundies or more atypical or less "regional" bottles, Frédéric's vintages are rare and sought-after wines, which sometimes require waiting.

XLC Xarel Lo Culinaries White 2022

Partida Creus
Culinaries Exclusive! This fruit of our collaboration with our favorite Catalan-Piedmontese, Antonella and Massimo, is a superb dry white from Catalonia, a unique and rare cuvée, and we are proud to present its first vintage. Classified as Vino de Mesa (table wine) and composed entirely of the indigenous Catalan Xarel·lo grape variety, this Culinaries cuvée is modeled on the estate's XL Xarel·lo, with notable differences. The wine is aged for a longer period and is done in demi-muids (large 500-650 liter barrels), which provides micro-oxygenation that enhances its complexity and fullness. It is therefore an "augmented" version of the XL, and it already tastes admirably, with a promise of great stability. Smoky, mineral, this Vino de Mesa (table wine) is already a classic, offering a pure and typical expression of xarel·lo. You can pair XL Xarel·lo Culinaries with the best of seafood, fish, white meats, roasted, grilled or cooked poultry in sauce...

Partida Creus is an important estate, both in terms of wine and history – we are talking here about the history of the vine in Catalonia. Massimo Marchiori and Antonella Gerosa, originally from Piedmont – and even coming from the Langhe region, where they know a lot about wines – first pursued a career as architects in Barcelona. But the wine bug tickles them, and soon they abandon the big city and its sophistication for the vineyards of southern Catalonia, in Bonastre in Baix-Penedés. There they find a quantity of abandoned vineyards planted with a dizzying diversity of traditional Catalan grape varieties, which they passionately revive to save these varieties – and their wines – from oblivion. For them, it's not just a matter of heritage rescue, no: it's a matter of taste and nature. Of natural wines, which they will never stop making from now on on these sandy, poor, clay-limestone or clay-gravel soils, poor and poorly irrigated, where the vines suffer to produce their best juice. Massimo and Antonella practice organic, biodynamic viticulture, entirely manual and natural to give new life to these wines. Vinyater, sumoll, garrut, monastrell, ull de perdiu, ull de llebre, sumoll, queixal de llop, cariñena, trepat, subirat parent, maccabeu, parellada, pansé, vinel·lo, bobal, cartoixà vermell or xarel·lo: Partida Creus is a veritable conservatory of native Catalan grape varieties. It also grows moscatel, grenache, merlot and cabernet (among others). Few wineries can boast growing so many different grape varieties. The wines reflect this diversity, with the winemakers striving to best convey the signature of the soil and the grape variety: single-variety wines are common among them, alongside extensive blends, all in the styles dear to Catalonia: still wine, "ancestral" sparkling wine, and even vermouth. The bottles themselves are works of art: bare glass, simply marked with two large stenciled initials that denote the vintage. The wines, fresh, vibrant, lush yet always straightforward and impeccably juicy and fruity, exude life. The arrival of a Partida Creus at the table always elicits cries of satisfaction.

Châteauneuf du Pape Red 2021

Les Grandes Serres
Interested in Châteauneuf-du-Pape with all the flavor, pleasure, and silky tannins that go with it, but without the solemnity? If you like appellation wine—and what an appellation!—but not excessive seriousness (while still appreciating the utmost rigor in the bottle), this wine is for you. This red AOC Châteauneuf-du-Pape is part of the Comics series from Domaine des Grandes Serres. It comes from the eponymous estate and is vinified in its cellars. Deep, delicious, fresh, and ample, it has no hint of sulfite, and for good reason: it is entirely natural, fermented with indigenous yeasts and without any chemical additives. It infuses and macerates on the skins in large, truncated wooden vats. It is aged for six months in old barrels before bottling. An all-terrain wine that provides great pleasure, to be enjoyed with friends and loved ones.

To find out more
Everyone knows where Châteauneuf-du-Pape is located, but how well do we really know this appellation? The Domaine des Grandes Serres represents both its excellence and its vitality. The creator of exceptional estate and merchant wines, both red and white, it harvests, buys grapes, vinifies, and ages over a wide area, centered around Châteauneuf and the southern Côtes-du-Rhône and including more peripheral areas such as Lirac or the Costières de Nîmes. In Châteauneuf-du-Pape itself, the estate owns twelve hectares. Established in 1977, it has long been founded on respect for the environment and the terroir. Currently, a large portion of its vintages are organic and without added sulfites, though it doesn't publicly boast about it. Modestly, Samuel Montgermont, the estate's general manager, explains that the geological and climatic conditions, particularly the mistral wind, favor the health of the vineyard and allow for the elimination of additives. Covering the entire range of white and red wines from the Midi and all their grape varieties, the estate is now committed to producing natural wines under labels that take themselves in no way seriously, but the wines contained in the bottles—each bearing the name of its appellation—are nothing short of solid and serious, in addition to being fresh and flavorful.

Muscana White 2022

Domaine Einhart

Muscana is an organic (Ecocert and AB labels) and natural dry white wine from Alsace from Domaine Einhart. Classified as AOC Alsace, this beautifully complex dry white is Domaine Einhart's homage to the Muscat grape variety.

Vinification

Muscana is a 100% Alsace Muscat, hand-harvested when overripe. The vines are approximately twenty-five years old and grow on the splendid oolitic limestone (muschelkalk) terroirs in the Fleckenstein, Westerberg, and Meyen localities. The harvest is destemmed, maceration in vats lasts one week, and fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in stainless steel vats on fine lees and is not filtered at bottling.

Tasting

Muscana offers a beautiful orange-amber color with superb brightness. The first nose offers rich, slightly smoky aromas typical of overripe Muscat berries. A second, very fine nose brings a hint of citrus fruit that encourages tasting. On the palate, the attack is straightforward and ample, accompanied by a melted acidity expressed through notes of candied quince. The finish is invigorating, with melted tannins linked to the maceration. We recommend decanting Muscana to help it develop its splendid aromas and serving it with choice dishes: fresh or smoked fish, vegetables including asparagus, white meats and foie gras.

The best of Alsatian terroirs

Entirely manual harvests, destemming of the bunches, light punching down, and delicate pressing are characteristic of the estate, as well as the separate vinification of each terroir, aging on lees, and the absence of filtration before bottling. The wines are pure grapes, lively, powerful, invigorating, and transcribe the minerality of these very beautiful terroirs in the Vosges foothills.
