Yeti Rouge 2024

La Tribu Alonso

The 2024 Yeti cuvée is a wine as atypical as its name, born in Beaujolais under the passionate impetus of the collective La Tribu Alonso. This 100% Gamay, or rather, should we say "100% Gamay diversity," brings together no fewer than 31 different varieties of this grape: Gamay teinturier, white, rosé, old clones, forgotten plants... A mosaic of grapes that reflects the richness of life and the free spirit of its winemakers.

The grapes are grown on granitic soils, without synthetic products, following a completely natural approach, even without certification. After a 5-day semi-carbonic maceration in fiber tanks, fermentation occurs thanks to indigenous yeasts, without oenological input. The wine is then aged for 12 months in concrete eggs, which brings roundness, energy, and balance, without woody masking.

The result? A vibrant and juicy red wine, with a light and brilliant color. The nose reveals crisp red fruits, a herbaceous touch, some sweet spices, and a peppery hint. On the palate, it is fluid, digestible, with a beautiful texture that remains fresh and elegant. A smooth Gamay, but never simplistic.

Yeti can be enjoyed as an aperitif, with artisanal charcuterie, lightly spiced dishes, or even grilled white meats. It's a wine of immediate pleasure, which appeals to both the curious and enlightened lovers of lively natural wines, to be drunk young or within 5 years.

Southern Red Version 2024

Puligny Montrachet White 2023

Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru Monts Luisants White White 2023

Amphore Rouge, 2023

Philippe Chatillon

With Amphore 2023, Philippe Chatillon delivers a rare and unique red cuvée, blending the typicality of the Jura with an ancestral aging method. This certified organic natural wine, classified as Vin de France, comes from a subtle blend of Pinot Noir and Trousseau, two emblematic grape varieties of the Jura, grown on clay-limestone soils and vinified with a spirit of purity and respect for the fruit.

After a short one-week maceration, the wine is aged for two years in amphorae (qvevris), these terracotta jars traditionally used in Georgia. This aging choice allows for slow and natural oxygenation, without the transfer of woody aromas, thus preserving the frankness of the fruit, the floral delicacy, and the complexity of the wine.

On the nose, Amphore 2023 immediately captivates: crisp red fruits, violet, a fresh herbaceous note, and a slightly earthy touch that recalls the very material of the amphora. On the palate, it is a light, fluid, yet structured wine, with a natural tension and a beautiful aromatic persistence. The balance between the finesse of Pinot Noir and the vitality of Trousseau is remarkable, supported by an aging process that acts as a revealer rather than a disguise.

At the table, this vibrant red will accompany grilled red meats, root vegetable dishes, or fine charcuterie. It will express itself fully at around 12 to 14°C, after decanting, and can be kept for 5 to 10 years.

With this cuvée, Philippe Chatillon creates an author's red wine, free and inspired, where the terroir of the Jura meets the millennial wisdom of amphora winemaking.

With a one-month maceration and a one-year aging in vats, this cuvée expresses the power and finesse of a wine deeply rooted in its environment.

A powerful and spicy red
This 2021 vintage offers a bright and clear ruby ​​color. On the nose, intense aromas of spices, ripe red fruits and a typical volcanic minerality harmoniously intertwine. On the palate, the wine reveals a silky structure and well-integrated tannins, supported by a balancing freshness and remarkable depth. The long and persistent finish is marked by spicy notes and a saline touch, signature of the Etna terroirs. This wine is best served between 14 and 16°C, after decanting, to release its full aromatic potential.

Borgonon Granate Red 2006,

Barranco Oscuro

Borgoñón Granate is an organic and natural red wine from Andalusia made from Pinot Noir. Classified as Vino de Mesa (table wine), it is vinified by Cortijo Barranco Oscuro. As its name suggests, it draws inspiration from Burgundy. This 2006, which has had time to reflect, is one of the best vintages of this cuvée.

Vinification

This wine comes from Pinot Noir vines planted at an altitude of 1,280 meters on schist soils. The wine is aged for one year in old barrels.

Tasting

Borgoñón Granate is a beautifully atypical wine that displays remarkable density while being relatively clear and not very concentrated (a reference to Burgundy). Intense red fruits, cherries, melted and velvety tannins, and a long and seductive smoky finish. It ages well. Great balance, melted tannins, pair it with a beautiful grilled prime rib or Spanish canned fish. A pata negra ham? Certainly, it's a compatriot.

Learn more about Cortijo Barranco Oscuro

Manuel Valenzuela cultivates the highest vines in the world (1,368 meters), in Andalusia, on the Sierra Contraviesa. Barranco oscuro means "dark valley," a reminder of the original site of the property, which was moved at the end of the 19th century after the phylloxera crisis. In 1979, the estate was taken over by Manuel, who decided to use natural methods in preference to those of modern oenology.

A drop of 1,400 meters

At first, he bought grapes, but his goal was to replant vines. Currently, the twelve hectares of Cortijo Barranco Oscuro extend over a drop of almost 1,400 meters. On a poor, dry, schistose terroir, two localities concentrate the plots: Cerro Las Monjas at the very top and Hoyo y Cerro de Las Gayumbas lower down, near the winery buildings.

High-altitude wines

Strong thermal contrasts explain the freshness of the wines, produced without the addition of exogenous yeasts and without inputs in the vineyard or cellar. Although the estate is not certified organic due to the disillusionment that fraud in this area has brought Manuel, his estate is a member of the Spanish Association of Natural Wine Producers. His wines are straightforward and clean, without compromise: they give joy through the seriousness of the work that was necessary to produce them.

Auxerrois Origin White 2022,

Jean-Marc Dreyer

Auxerrois Origin by Jean-Marc Dreyer is an organic (AB label), biodynamic, and natural dry white Alsatian maceration wine (orange wine), with no added sulfites. Jean-Marc Dreyer's Origin range consists of single-varietal cuvées based on six Alsatian grape varieties (Sylvaner, Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, and Muscat), enhanced by skin-contact maceration with a touch of controlled oxidation. The discovery of each Origin vintage is always a pleasant surprise.

Vinification

Auxerrois, or Pinot Auxerrois, is a typically Alsatian grape variety with floral and spicy notes. The harvest, done by hand, is macerated for seven days in whole bunches. After pressing and fermentation, the wine is aged for ten to eleven months in Alsatian style, in tuns and demi-muids, without topping up. Biodynamic method, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or cellar.

Tasting

Floral, fresh, seductive, slightly smoky, Auxerrois Origin by Jean-Marc Dreyer is both atypical and delicious. The maceration gives it a distinguished chew on very fine tannins. With its amber color, floral notes, seductive bitters, delicious salinity, hints of white peach and citrus, and perfect straightness, it is ready for any pairing. A bellota Iberico ham would melt with happiness next to it, but it will also be a delight alongside smoked fish, seafood platters, mature cheeses, or white meats. We will enjoy it, for our part, with a beautiful roasted poultry.

Learn more about Jean-Marc Dreyer

Jean-Marc Dreyer, a biodynamic and natural Alsace winemaker (AB organic certification label), succeeds several generations of his family at the Dreyer & Fils estate, created in 1830 between Obernai and Molsheim. Upon taking over the estate, he immediately opted for biodynamics. In 2009, upon returning from a pilgrimage to Compostela, he decided never to add sulfur to any wine again. Having made this decision, he asserted his style around skin maceration, accentuated, chiseled, bringing out the soul of Alsatian grape varieties. Jean-Marc also works with direct pressing and often with single varietals. He also produces Pinot Noir reds of surprising depth.

Maceration and Direct Press

Jean-Marc Dreyer's wines are characterized by whole-bunch maceration (but you should also taste his direct-press whites). "Maceration in Alsace," he says, "is an ancestral tradition! In the past, we worked by hand and let the grapes macerate before sending the marc to the press." Gentle oxidation is also a particular characteristic of his wines, generally vinified without topping up. Jean-Marc is best known for his "Origin" series, a finely macerated expression of Alsace grape varieties, but we invite you to discover his other wines.
