Westerberg Blanc 2023,
The subtle and mouth-watering expression of a unique terroir
The Westerberg 2023, produced by Domaine Einhart, is a highly expressive cuvée that combines Gewurztraminer and Riesling, two emblematic grape varieties of Alsace. Produced from vines planted on a terroir of limestone silt, this cuvée draws its unique character from a meticulous 11-month maturation in foudres, which amplifies its complexity while preserving its freshness.
An intense and elegant tasting
On the nose, the Westerberg 2023 reveals a striking aromatic richness: notes of candied apricot, juicy pear and jasmine blend harmoniously with touches of mango and citrus. On the palate, this wine displays a supple and velvety texture, balanced by a marked mineral freshness. The vibrant acidity brings a beautiful salivation, while the long and persistent finish highlights brioche and slightly buttery nuances. This contrast between breadth and liveliness makes this wine a true sensory journey.
Refined pairings for a varied gastronomy
The richness and finesse of the Westerberg 2023 make it a perfect ally for the table. It enhances grilled fish dishes, seafood, or even roast poultry. It also pairs well with Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, where its exotic aromas and ample structure will find a beautiful echo. Finally, it pairs elegantly with mature cheeses and fruit desserts, such as an apricot tart or a citrus mousse.
Serve between 6 and 8°C after decanting, this wine is ready to be enjoyed now, but will also evolve magnificently in the cellar for at least 5 years.
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?
Learn more about Clos des B
Clos des B (initials of the two owners) is an organic and natural wine estate located in Grimaud, in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Gwendolyn Berger and Jean-Jacques Branger are the proud producers of the very first natural cuvées from this geographical area. 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 schist sands crisscrossed 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 is under the Écocert label, applied for in 2020), biodynamics, and natural methods. The wines are made without added sulfites, fining, or filtration. The wines of Clos des B are a true reflection of their terroir and climate: fresh, fruity, and very pleasant to drink, beautiful natural wines from the terroir of Provence.
Vin d’Montbled White 2015,
This barrel-aged Chardonnay comes from 90-year-old vines planted on clay-limestone soils. Fruit, freshness, and character: a delight.
Natural wine with no added sulfites
L'Enchanteresse Red 2022
L'Enchanteresse, by its name, sets the bar very high and has nothing to be ashamed of, and for good reason: it's an organic (Ecocert) and natural red wine from the Coteaux du Loir, 100% Pineau d'Aunis and classified as a Vin de France. It is produced by Renaud Guettier of La Grapperie without chemical additives or added sulfites.
Vinification
It is on a terroir of flint clay on limestone, at an altitude of 100 meters, that the fifty-year-old Pineau d'Aunis vines grow, pruned in a goblet shape, from which the aptly named L'Enchanteresse is produced. The Pineau d'Aunis is harvested at full maturity, sorted and then macerated for four weeks in truncated oak vats with punching down by foot. Fermentation takes place naturally using indigenous yeasts, without any oenological additives in order to preserve the purity of the grapes and the expression of the vintage and the soil. All work on the musts and wines is done by gravity. L'Enchanteresse is aged for thirty-six months on lees, without racking or stirring, in demi-muids in cellars dug into the tuffeau stone. Bottled without filtration or the addition of sulfites.
Tasting
A very intense nose of black fruits extends into a beautiful volume in the mouth, very velvety and fruity, and the length leaves one thinking. Renaud Guettier did not name it L’Enchanteresse for nothing. A cuvée of old vines, this Pineau d’Aunis has excellent aging potential. You will open it alongside red meat, a stew, calf’s head in turtle sauce, or fish matelotes in red wine. He will also appreciate charcuterie, cured meats, and roast lamb.
Learn more about Renaud Guettier and La Grapperie
In the Coteaux du Loir appellation, La Grapperie is the name of the estate of Renaud Guettier, who can be described as a master of Chenin, but also of Pineau d'Aunis, which is one of the oldest grape varieties in the Loire Valley.
The estate
Renaud's 60 hectares of hillside vines are protected from the north winds by the Bercé forest. Depending on the altitude, the terroirs are predominantly clay, flint, or sand. The grape varieties are the two traditionally authorized varieties in the appellation: Chenin for the whites and Pineau d'Aunis for 90% of the reds, the rest consisting of a few ares of Côt, Gamay, and Grolleau. Some vines are more than a hundred years old.
In the vineyard and the winery
The entire estate is organically cultivated. The soils are worked and all viticultural interventions are manual, including the harvest, carried out at full maturity, which is reflected in the fullness and smoothness of the wines. For the reds, the Pineaux d'Aunis are partially destemmed (depending on the plot) and the macerations are quite long, three to four weeks, with punching down, to promote aging potential. The wines are aged in barrels for between twelve and twenty-four months, then racked, blended, and bottled without filtration. For the whites, the Chenins are pressed directly at low pressure and then put into barrels with complete malolactic fermentation, for at least eighteen months, including malolactic fermentation, and sometimes up to thirty-six months.

Vino Rosato Rosé 2021
Corva Gialla
Here is Vino Rosato, a beautiful Italian wine from the Lazio region whose pretty light pink color heralds pleasant floral notes on the nose and palate: rose, red fruits, citrus, acidity, and a touch of bitterness on the finish, reminiscent of grapefruit peel, which gives it a lot of charm. It is a blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese grapes. The Montepulciano harvest macerates for 48 hours on the skins before being pressed, while the Sangiovese is pressed directly at the entrance to the winery. The musts are then fermented together in fiberglass vats where they are further refined until bottling in March. Vino Rosato will suit everything you want from a rosé, and more: its purity and balance raise it above the standard image of summer rosés. We recommend it in any season and particularly with food.

The Azienda Corva Gialla ("yellow crow") is a winery in Lazio, Italy, located on the edge of Umbria in the Alta Tuscia Viterbese. A volcanic region considered one of the most beautiful in Italy and characterized by its calanches, high tuff rock formations delimiting deep valleys carved by numerous rivers and torrents. Corva Gialla is located in Lubriano, opposite Cività di Bagnoregio. Alta Tuscia is proving to be a breeding ground for young winemaking talents dedicated to nature, who are reclaiming these historically neglected lands. Founded in 2017, the estate comprises four hectares cultivated by Beatrice Arweiler, originally from another wine-growing region, between the Rhine and the Moselle. The new owner has also planted an olive grove (Frantoio and Leccino varieties) and converted the estate into a mixed crop-livestock system. The vines were planted with the help of Gian Marco Antonuzzi of the Le Coste estate. The friable volcanic soil lends itself beautifully to viticulture and the planting of grape varieties such as Grechetto d'Umbria, Trebbiano, Vermentino, Sangiovese, and Ciliegiolo. The estate's wines are quintessentially Italian, meaning they are crafted primarily for enjoyment. They are straightforward, deep, and easy to drink, expressing the strong minerality of their soils.

Sylvaner Origin White 2020
With Sylvaner Origin 2020, Jean-Marc Dreyer brilliantly reinterprets this often underestimated Alsatian grape variety. Thanks to whole-bunch maceration and eleven months of aging in foudres, he gives it remarkable depth and structure. A natural, vibrant, and refined wine, a cross between a dry white and an orange wine.
Natural vinification for a pure expression of the terroir
Grown biodynamically, this Sylvaner benefits from meticulous work in the vineyard and the winery: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, no filtration or clarification, and no added sulfites throughout the process. Maceration extracts fine tannins, giving the wine body and a silky texture, while preserving a beautiful mineral tension.
An intense and structured Sylvaner
Behind its golden color with amber highlights, this wine reveals an expressive nose with notes of candied citrus, orange peel, and fine spices. On the palate, the attack is full-bodied, driven by perfectly balanced acidity and a straight, elegant structure. The subtle tannins provide a lingering length, marked by a saline and slightly tannic touch that invites tasting.
Food and wine pairings and tasting moments
Served between 12 and 14°C, this macerated Sylvaner shines as an accompaniment to seafood, fine fish, and shellfish. It also excels with more gourmet dishes such as financial vol-au-vent, porcini mushroom ravioli, or mature cheese. Its balance between freshness and opulence makes it a wine equally at home as an aperitif or on a fine dining table.

"Maceration is a tradition in Alsace!" says Jean-Marc Dreyer, adding that direct pressing in this region is a modern invention, linked to the advent of electricity. In the past, people worked by hand and let the grapes macerate before sending the pomace to the press. » Whole-bunch maceration is Jean-Marc Dreyer's signature and represents 85% of the estate's production, the remainder consisting of direct-pressed whites, often aged using controlled oxidation. Jean-Marc succeeds several generations of his family at the Dreyer & Fils estate, established in 1830 between Obernai and Molsheim. Upon taking over the estate, he immediately opted for biodynamics, but he hesitated for a while between several methods: at first, his wines were more oaky, aged in new barrels with stirring. Then came the sweet period: all his wines contained residual sugar. In 2008, he tried vinifying without any sulfur and found his direction: the following winter, upon returning from the pilgrimage to Compostela, he swore never to add sulfur to any wine again. Having made this decision, he asserts his style around skin maceration, quite advanced, chiseled, always surprising on Alsatian grape varieties, of which it brings out the structure without sacrificing the delicacy. Jean-Marc works in single-varietal or blended vintages and also produces Pinot Noir reds of surprising depth.
Madloba White 2018,
Domaine des Miquettes skillfully 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 learned his trade from 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 acres of vines, then in 2004 the entire estate, which now covers 4.3 hectares. The white grape varieties are located around the house, 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 cultivated organically (Ecocert) with biodynamic practices. The vines are cared for and fortified using plant decoctions and clay. 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 country in the Caucasus, 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, the terracotta erases astringency and transmutes it into a velvety texture, a fruity and supple material.
Madloba blanc ("thank you" in Georgian) is a blend of 50% Marsanne and 50% Viognier. The vines are planted at an altitude of 350 meters, on a hillside plot with granite and black mica soils. The wine is aged for a year in qvevri, amphorae buried in the cellar in the Georgian style. This wine is reminiscent of its Georgian counterparts aged in terracotta, with its floral and spicy notes, mineral tension, a full texture, and intense flavor. It's an all-rounder when it comes to pairings.
My Sweet Navine White 2015
A small bottle but a great wine! A sweet white made from 100% Chenin, My Sweet Navine is produced from late harvests on the schist plot where the estate's other Chenins are also grown. A delicate amber color, with notes of citrus and candied fruit on the nose. On the palate, there is a surprising freshness despite the residual sugar: this is explained by the lack of sorting, as the grapes are at varying stages of ripeness. We thus benefit from green berries, ripe berries, and varying degrees of noble rot. and a light sparkle which gives way to a beautiful length, always with notes of candied fruit.
Natural wine without added sulfites.
Le Vigne Piu Vecchie White 2010
A great deal of wisdom goes into this 100% Procanico Italian white wine, produced from vines around sixty years old. A precious plot, located on the volcanic soils of the Le Coste estate, to which it owes its name: the vigne più vecchie, literally "the oldest vines." After direct pressing and a short maceration, this cuvée is aged for many months in 500-liter oak barrels before being bottled, where it will wait another thirty-six months. Despite its venerable age, one cannot help but be charmed by the beautiful minerality that it manages to retain in the mouth, and by its formidable balance.
Natural wine without added sulfites.
Cuvée Mourvèdre Rouge 2024
Frédéric Cossard
Avec cette Cuvée Mourvèdre 2024, Frédéric Cossard poursuit son travail de négoce libre et exigeant. Toujours fidèle à sa philosophie naturelle, il vinifie ici un 100 % Mourvèdre provenant de raisins cultivés en agriculture biologique sur les pentes argilo-calcaires du Mont Ventoux, en Vallée du Rhône. Mais c’est en Bourgogne, son fief, que l'alchimie opère : une vinification sans intrants, en levures indigènes, pour un vin vibrant de naturel.
La fermentation carbonique, méthode chère à Cossard, permet d’adoucir la structure tannique du Mourvèdre tout en révélant un fruit pur et juteux. L’élevage de 12 mois en œuf béton apporte volume et souplesse sans jamais masquer l'identité du cépage. Aucun soufre n’est ajouté, ni à la vinification, ni à la mise.
En dégustation, la robe est profonde, d’un grenat limpide. Le nez s’ouvre sur des fruits noirs bien mûrs (cassis, mûre), puis laisse apparaître des notes herbacées et de garrigue typiques du sud. En bouche, l’équilibre est superbe : une trame ample et structurée, des tannins mûrs et fins, et une fraîcheur qui dynamise l’ensemble. La finale, légèrement poivrée, prolonge le plaisir.
C’est un vin de gastronomie qui se mariera idéalement avec une côte de bœuf grillée, un tajine d’agneau ou encore des légumes confits. À boire dès aujourd’hui après un passage en carafe, ou à laisser évoluer 3 à 5 ans.
Version Sud Rouge 2024
Frédéric Cossard
Avec Version Sud, Frédéric Cossard continue de bousculer les codes du vin naturel. Ici, direction le Vaucluse, dans la vallée du Rhône, pour une cuvée de négoce 100 % Grenache issue de raisins cultivés en agriculture biologique sur des sols argilo-calcaires. Le tout est vinifié avec la patte unique de Cossard… en Bourgogne ! Un vin du Sud, donc, mais pensé avec une rigueur et une fraîcheur typiquement septentrionales.
La fermentation carbonique permet de sublimer le fruit tout en préservant l’élégance. Le vin est ensuite élevé pendant un an en œuf béton, un contenant qui favorise les échanges naturels sans boiser le vin. Aucun intrant, levures indigènes uniquement, pas de soufre ajouté à la mise : on est dans une pure démarche nature, fidèle à la philosophie du vigneron.
À la dégustation, Version Sud 2024 offre une robe rubis brillante. Le nez est expressif et frais, marqué par les fruits rouges croquants, les fruits noirs juteux et une légère note herbacée. En bouche, le vin est à la fois ample et souple, avec une belle tension minérale en filigrane. Les tanins sont fondus, la finale nette et digeste.
Idéal sur une viande rouge grillée, un plat mijoté aux épices douces ou simplement à partager entre amateurs de vins francs et joyeux. Un rouge solaire mais équilibré, qui garde toute la vivacité du Grenache dans sa version la plus libre.
Meursault La Barre Dessus, Blanc 2023
Fréderic Cossard
Frédéric Cossard, figure radicale du vin naturel en Bourgogne, livre ici un Meursault d’altitude, à la fois ample, riche et profondément vivant. Issu de la parcelle renommée La Barre Dessus, en haut de coteau, ce Chardonnay sans label mais cultivé en bio, prend vie sur sols argilo-calcaires pour une expression minérale et structurée.
Une vinification naturelle tout en précision
Récolté à maturité optimale, le raisin est pressé directement, sans éraflage, puis vinifié sans soufre ni intrants. La fermentation se déroule en levures indigènes, et le vin est élevé pendant un an en œuf béton. Ce contenant non boisé, légèrement micro-oxygénant, respecte la matière et fait ressortir l’énergie du vin sans l’alourdir.
Un Meursault hors des sentiers battus
À la dégustation, le vin offre une bouche large, texturée, mais toujours tenue par une belle tension minérale. On y retrouve des arômes de pêche jaune, de beurre frais, de pierre chaude et une pointe d’épices douces. La finale est longue, subtilement saline, et promet une évolution splendide en bouteille.
Un blanc de garde mais accessible dès maintenant
Servi entre 10 et 12 °C, ce Meursault accompagnera parfaitement des poissons nobles, volailles crémées, plats asiatiques parfumés ou fromages affinés. Il peut déjà se boire pour sa richesse immédiate, mais atteindra sa pleine maturité sur 10 ans et plus.
