Dry

Muscat Sec des Roumanis White 2009

Le Petit Domaine de Gimios

This dry Muscat à petits grains comes from century-old vines planted in limestone soil very close to the bedrock. The grapes are foot-trodden, very lightly macerated, then aged for several months in stainless steel vats.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.

No Bullschiste White 2023,

De Vini

A natural tribute to Chenin and schist terroirs

The No Bullschiste 2023, by De Vini, is a vibrant and authentic white wine, born from the schist terroirs of the Loire. This 100% Chenin, vinified by direct pressing and aged for 8 months in buried sandstone vats, reflects a natural philosophy, without fining or filtration, to preserve all the purity of the grape and the expression of the terroir.

A fresh and saline tasting experience

To the eye, this wine reveals a clear and luminous color, with slightly golden highlights. The nose is aromatic and refined, with tangy notes of lemon, green apple, and a subtle floral touch. On the palate, it seduces with its vibrant freshness, marked minerality, and a saline finish reminiscent of sea spray. Its lively and light texture makes it an ideal companion for convivial moments. Served between 8 and 10°C, it is best enjoyed young to fully appreciate its energy and purity.

A seafood companion

No Bullschiste 2023 pairs wonderfully with shellfish, oysters, or cooked fish. Its liveliness and minerality also make it a perfect choice for a light aperitif or dishes with marine influences.

With an aging potential of 5 years, this Chenin, enhanced by schist, offers an authentic experience, between tradition and modernity. A natural and sincere wine, ideal for lovers of freshness and non-interventionist wines.

SP Subirat Parent Blanc 2020,

Partida Creus
This 100% Subirat Parent wine is crisp and aromatic, with a nose of ripe white fruits, melon, and wildflowers. Agile on the palate, fresh and straightforward, lemony and slightly saline, it offers a long finish tinged with a delicate bitterness typical of the estate. Subirat Parent, one of the oldest Catalan grape varieties and a close relative of Malvasia, remains rare even in its country of origin. The clay-limestone soil enhances its freshness and integrity. The harvest is pressed after a three-day skin maceration. The must is settled and fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel vats. Three months of rest in vats on fine lees before bottling.

Partida Creus is an important estate, both from a winemaking and historical perspective – we're talking about the history of the vine in Catalonia. Massimo Marchiori and Antonella Gerosa, originally from Piedmont – and even from the Langhe region, where wine is well-known – first pursued careers as architects in Barcelona. But the wine bug bit them, and they soon abandoned the big city and its sophistication for the vineyards of southern Catalonia, in Bonastre in Baix-Penedés. There they found a wealth of abandoned vineyards planted with a dizzying diversity of traditional Catalan grape varieties, which they passionately revived to save these varieties – and their wines – from oblivion. On their part, it’s not just a matter of saving heritage, no: it’s a matter of taste and nature. Natural wines, which they will continue to make from now on on these sandy, poor, clay-limestone or clay-gravelly, poor and poorly irrigated lands, where the vines suffer to give their best juice. Massimo and Antonella practice organic, biodynamic, entirely manual and natural viticulture in order to give new life to these wines. Vinyater, sumoll, garrut, monastrell, ull de perdiu, ull de llebre, sumoll, queixal de llop, cariñena, trepat, ceciat parent, maccabeu, parellada, pansé, vinel.lo, bobal, cartoixà vermell or xarel.lo: it is a true conservatory of the native Catalan grape varieties that Partida Creus cares for. Moscatel, Grenache, Merlot, and Cabernet (among others) are also grown here. Few wineries can boast growing so many different grape varieties. The wines reflect this diversity, with winemakers striving to best convey the signature of the soil and the grape variety: single-varietal 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 cuvée. The wines, fresh, vibrant, lush but always straightforward and impeccably juicy and fruity, breathe life. The arrival of a Partida Creus at the table always elicits cries of satisfaction.

Colline des anciens White 2021

Domaine Einhart

The aptly named Colline des Anciens is minerality personified: full of freshness and salinity, it is a dry white from Alsace with an alcohol content of 13.6% and a great aromatic depth. This minerality and aromatic depth reflect the great limestone terroir of the Rosheim hillsides: a clay-rich soil on a substrate of muschelkalk and pink limestone. The plots face south on a 20% slope, and the vines have an average age of thirty years. The blend of three Alsatian grape varieties is carried out as follows: the Riesling (40%) is directly pressed, while the Gewurztraminer (20%) and Pinot Gris (40%) are macerated for forty-eight hours. All the grapes come from the estate and are harvested by hand; both the viticulture and the work in the cellar are 100% free of additives and sulfites, and the wine is not filtered. Colline des Anciens is aged exclusively in Alsatian foudres (wooden vats of around a thousand liters).

To find out more
Located in the northern part of the Alsatian vineyard, horizontally above Strasbourg, the Einhart estate is a ten-hectare family estate whose vines are located on the hillsides that rise between the Alsace plain and the Vosges mountains. The soil is clay-limestone and rich in fossils (muschelkalk, i.e. shell limestone and oolite limestone, and lettenkohle or dolomitic limestone). Since 1990, Nicolas Einhart has been at the helm, now assisted by his son Théo. True to his commitments to the TIFLO association, of which he is co-founder, Nicolas devotes his winemaking work to the protection of the land and biodiversity, winemaking without inputs, the refusal of harmful phytosanitary products and the maintenance of ecological refuge zones. His estate has been certified organic since 2011. Like Jean-Marc Dreyer [link], he is resolutely moving towards skin maceration and produces white maceration wines (orange wines) in addition to a red Pinot Noir. Entirely manual harvesting, 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 grape, lively, powerful, invigorating, and transcribe the minerality of the very beautiful terroirs of the Vosges foothills.

We are Young Rouge Beaujolais Nouveau 2025,

Domaine de la Sorbiere

We Are Young 2025 is a declaration of intent. More than just a Beaujolais Nouveau, it's a vision of young wine, free, without embellishment or artifice. This vintage from Domaine de la Sorbière, in granite Beaujolais, pays homage to the vitality of Gamay, the region's emblematic grape variety, worked here in a completely natural spirit.

The grapes come from granitic soils which give the wine a very clear mineral freshness. The winemaking is as simple as it is sincere: 5-day semi-carbonic maceration, spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts, and an ultra-short aging of 4 days in stainless steel tanks to capture the instant of the fruit. No superfluous oenological intervention, no exogenous yeasts or chemical inputs: here, everything is natural, alive, and respectful of both the grape and its terroir.

The color is a very light red, grenadine-colored, almost translucent, evoking fermented fruit juice. The nose immediately charms with its notes of citrus, fresh cherry, and white flowers, a fine and spring-like aromatic palette. On the palate, the crunchiness of the fruit dominates, with a fluid, fresh, almost thirst-quenching texture, without lacking structure. The moderate alcohol content (12%) contributes to this impression of gourmet lightness.

Perfect as an apéritif, We Are Young 2025 pairs wonderfully with a platter of fine cold cuts, soft cheeses or simple and generous cuisine. Serve slightly chilled (16-18°C) and drink without delay, although its aging potential of 2 to 5 years will surprise the curious.

A numbered vintage, full of sincerity and zest, to reconcile all enthusiasts with the original spirit of Beaujolais Nouveau: that of celebration, sharing, and wine that does good.

Saint Romain Combe Bazin Qvevris White 2021

Domaine de Chassorney

A white Saint-Romain from a great climate is already a lot, but the same wine, vinified and aged in a qvevri (Georgian-style terracotta jar), acquires even more velvety, delicate, and honeyed notes. The nose is floral and beautifully mineral. White flowers, yellow fruits (Mirabelle plum, peach), and a hint of toasted brioche. On the palate, this white Saint-Romain, made from Chardonnays grown in the Combe Bazin locality, is intense, long, and flavorful; it bears the imprint of its beautiful terroir. This is a pure Chardonnay from a steep, east-facing plot between 280 and 400 meters above sea level. The soils are mainly marl, limestone, and clay. After skin maceration, the wine is aged in qvevri, which further accentuates its smoothness and finesse. The Combe Bazin climate is known for producing mineral, lively, sapid, and persistent wines, with the added bonus of Burgundian smoothness. If you give this wine a few years, it will develop a rich, honeyed, mellow, and distinguished note, but it is good to drink immediately.

Through his entirely natural work, Frédéric Cossard gives voice to the terroirs and Burgundy wines, undistorted 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 which are among the most sought-after in Burgundy. Frédéric worked for a 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 merchant house and purchased 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 vintages. The practice is not limited to Burgundy since vintages are made from grapes purchased in the Jura or Languedoc. At his place, the work of the soil and the vines is done as naturally as possible: regular plowing by horse, no addition of chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The vines are cared for 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, 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.

Saint Romain Combe Bazin Qvevris Blanc 2020,

Domaine de Chassorney

An exceptional Chardonnay, aged in Georgian jars

The Saint-Romain Combe Bazin Qvevris Blanc 2020 from Domaine de Chassorney is an exceptional cuvée that combines Burgundian elegance with the ancestral Georgian tradition of ageing in qvevris. This pure Chardonnay, from a steep, east-facing plot, draws its minerality and complexity from a soil composed of marl, clay, and limestone. At an altitude varying between 280 and 400 meters, this terroir gives the grapes vibrant tension and superb freshness.

Upon opening, the luminous golden color announces a wine of character. The nose reveals a beautiful aromatic palette, combining candied citrus, juicy pear, fresh almond and notes of flint, typical of great white Burgundy. The skin maceration, followed by ageing in qvevris, brings additional depth, enriching the texture with honeyed, spicy and slightly tannic nuances. On the palate, the balance is masterful: a beautiful mineral tension supports a full-bodied and structured wine, whose saline and persistent finish leaves an unforgettable impression.

A natural and unfiltered wine, this unique cuvée deserves to be decanted to reveal its full complexity. Served between 10 and 12°C, it pairs magnificently with pan-fried scallops, roasted lobster, truffle risotto, or creamed poultry. A rare, deep, and vibrant wine that will evolve gracefully over 5 to 10 years.

Muscat Sec Des Roumanis White 2010

Le Petit Gimios

This dry Muscat Petit Grain comes from century-old vines planted in limestone soil very close to the bedrock. The grapes are foot-trodden, very lightly macerated, then aged for several months in stainless steel vats.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.

Sumoll Red 2019,

Cyclic Beer Farm

Cyclic Beer Farm is a duo of friends from Barcelona, Alberto and Joshua. Based in the Catalan capital, they have two sides to their business: beer (Cyclic Beer) and wine (Cyclic Wine). The beers, inspired by the Belgian model, are available in surprising and colorful ranges where expertly measured yeast cocktails and house brews combine with varied macerations of fruits, vegetables, herbs and grape marc from traditional Catalan varieties, the latter taken after the fermentation of their wines - because the second part is the wine, made exclusively from native Catalan grape varieties. As merchant winemakers, Alberto and Joshua themselves harvest by hand from organic wineries throughout Catalonia and bring the harvest to their winery-brewery workshop in La Sagrera (Barcelona). There they sort the grapes, tread them under foot and vat the must using exclusively indigenous yeasts. Depending on the type of wine, skin maceration takes place on the skins and stems for between one and three days for the whites and between six and fifteen days for the reds. The free-run juice is then transferred without pressing into stainless steel tanks where fermentation continues before bottling. The skins and stems, and sometimes part of the juice, are then used for the maceration of saison beers: an interesting synergy between beer and wine. No sulfites are added to the vinification; nothing is added or removed from the wine, which is never filtered. The harvest and other viticultural operations are decided according to the lunar calendar.
This all-Sumoll red wine (a traditional Catalan grape variety) comes from almost century-old vines planted in Mas Llorenç, in the Lower Penedès, on limestone soils. The altitude of the plot is 260 meters. The harvest is sorted, 10% foot-crushed, then undergoes 27 days of semi-carbonic maceration. After a second, very moderate crushing, fermentation continues in stainless steel tanks. This wine truly reflects the grape variety's signature, with a very fresh attack, lovely acidity, fruity complexity, and moderate tannins. Its modest alcohol content makes it a good aperitif and get-together wine. It will be a hit at a summer barbecue.

The tannins have pride of place in this 100% Trepat red wine (a traditional Catalan grape variety); they assert themselves from the attack with a crisp acidity. Rustic and fruity, invigorating, almost a gurgle (it needs a little time and rest to become fully so). The grapes grow on a clay-limestone plot in Prenafeta (municipality of La Conca de Barberà) and the vines are two years old. The altitude is 400 meters. The harvest, hand-picked, is crushed and then macerated for twelve days on the skins and stalks, with punching down every two days. A second, very gentle crushing precedes the second phase of fermentation in stainless steel vats.

Poiré de la combe d'Ire White 17/18

Jean-Yves Péron

Poiré de la Combe d’Ire is a sparkling cuvée from Jean-Yves Péron made with pears. Organic, biodynamic, and natural, this perry is the winemaker's only grape-free cuvée.

Vinification

Around ten varieties of old pears, growing in Savoyard orchards, are the basis of this perry from Combe d’Ire, a clay-limestone area classified as a biological reserve and protected area near Chevaline. The pears are grated and then pressed. The perry is aged for three years in 350-liter barrels.

Tasting

Completely dry (zero dosage), beautiful golden color with a lovely fine note of sweetness in the background, coexisting with a symphony of bitterness, fruitiness, and salinity. A great richness of taste, the pear sublimated in a sparkling beverage. Intensely fresh finish. This aged perry is at its best after five years of aging.

Learn more about Jean-Yves Péron

Jean-Yves Péron skillfully embodies 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 Chevaline winery in the Bauges region, he vinifies 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 slopes, his hand-worked mountain vines in micro-plots receive no synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. All of Jean-Yves Péron's wines are sulfite-free, made from hand-harvested grapes, vinified in whole bunches and foot-trodden in the vat. For all vintages, the free-run and press are blended, then aged on lees for at least one year, in two- or three-wine barrels, amphorae or tuns, before final blending. They must be stored at a temperature below 18°C. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.

Italo-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.

AA Anonimo Ancestral Rosé 2018

Partida Creus
The olfactory and flavor notes of this Anonimo Ancestral evoke undergrowth, grass, and yeast, along with red fruit. This wine is a sparkling rosé with a creamy texture and fine bubbles, offering a magnificent mineral sensation on the palate, superb texture, and remarkable freshness that requires a very low serving temperature (8-10°C) in a Bordeaux or tulip glass. Obtained using the bottle refermentation method and aged for twelve months on fine lees, it is not filtered or sulfite-added. It is the result of a blend of several traditional Catalan grape varieties that differ depending on the color: for example, Xarel lo, Macabeu, Parellada, Moscatel, and Ull de Llebre. The blend and its proportions are subject to variation depending on the vintage. It pairs well with Mediterranean dishes, particularly those containing garlic, for example, snails Burgundy style, a Romesco sauce, cod aioli, etc. Anonimo Ancestral is a friend of all grilled dishes, including fish and seafood (octopus, squid, etc.).

Nuria Cartoixa Vermell Sparkling White 2018

Clos Lentiscus
Purity, elegance, and a crisp minerality due to the limestone characterize the productions of Clos Lentiscus. The note of controlled oxidation, when present, does not dominate the tasting, and the wines are never deviant. The cavas are renowned for their exuberance, but those from Clos Lentiscus never have more than two grams of residual sugar per liter. The estate also produces still red, white, and rosé wines.

This winery is located in Sitges, Catalonia, in the heart of the Garraf Natural Park. Manel Avinyo and his brother Joan took over the family estate, renamed Clos Lentiscus by Manel. Even though Barcelona is only a half-hour drive away, the beauty of the landscape is striking and the immersion in nature is total: Mediterranean forests rub shoulders with Catalan scrubland (thyme, rosemary, rockrose, mastic tree which gave its name to the estate, etc.). The Penedès region also has a long winemaking history. Nestled in its gentle hills is Clos Lentiscus, in the Penedés appellation, on twenty hectares of sandy and clay-limestone soils facing due south at an altitude of 225 meters. According to historical documents, Manel and Joan Avinyo's family has been established there since at least the 14th century. For a long time, the grapes were sold to local cooperatives, but as soon as the two brothers took over the estate, organic and biodynamic farming replaced conventional practices, the entire harvest goes into the house vintages, and organic and biodynamic practices have allowed this beautiful property to regain its former prestige: in the 19th century, its wines were sold in France and as far away as the Americas. Very quickly, Manel received a nickname: The Bubbleman, a tribute to his talent for vinifying cavas, these sparkling whites characteristic of the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, from indigenous varieties for which Catalonia holds the secret: sumoll, ull de llebre, xarel·lo, malvasia of Sitges, cartoixà vermell, cariñena (carignan), accompanied by tempranillo and muscat of Alexandria. The vines are old, some of them centuries old. No synthetic additives are used in the vineyard, and operations such as planting, pruning, de-budding, and harvesting are dictated by the lunar phases. Pollination is facilitated by the presence of beehives; sheep contribute to fertilization and control of the plant cover. Ringo, the white horse, is responsible for working the soil.

Núria is the name of Manel's daughter, who assisted her father in the creation of this fresh and delicious sparkling white wine, made using ancestral methods, from the direct pressing of the native Catalan Cartoixà Vermell grape variety. The primary fermentation, based on indigenous yeasts, takes place in 55-liter demijohns, and the secondary fermentation takes place in bottles. Twenty-four months of aging on fine lees and manual disgorgement. A wine for fried shrimp, fried fish, and all seafood from the Mediterranean and beyond.

Vagabond Red 2022

Benoit Camus

Vagabond is an organic (Ecocert) and natural red wine from Beaujolais, made by Benoît Camus from Gamay. This Vin de France is produced in the south of the appellation, in the Pierre Dorées terroir. Its name evokes the winemaker's life as a seasonal farmer before purchasing his vineyards in Beaujolais.

Vinification

Growing on clay-limestone soils, the Gamay vines of Beaujolais are cultivated and harvested by hand, as the steep terrain prohibits any mechanized work. The harvest undergoes a semi-carbonic maceration process for fifteen days. The wine is aged in concrete vats for twelve months.

Tasting

Two vintages from Benoît Camus are currently available, this one being the "sweeter" of the two. It is an organic and natural Beaujolais with rich and vibrant fruit—strawberry, raspberry, cranberry, cherry, redcurrant—which we recommend drinking well chilled. The acidity and freshness are remarkable, and the wine offers notes of humus and wet stone. A touch of spice: nutmeg. It is a very aromatic wine, a charmer that will appreciate being paired with charcuterie, cured meats, Red Meats and roasted poultry.

Learn more about Benoît Camus

You might think he's itinerant, with his vintages called "Château roulant" or "Vagabond," but for Benoît Camus, it's a memory of his previous life, when he was a seasonal farmer in the Rhône Valley and as far as Roussillon. Since 2003, he has settled in Southern Beaujolais, in the Pierres Dorées terroir, to make organic (Ecocert) and natural wines.

Nature first, nature always

Before buying his seven-hectare estate from an old winemaker, the vines had not yet seen pesticides or chemical additives. Many in Beaujolais worked like this. He made his first vintage in 2006, "natural without knowing it," he says. A brief attempt at chemical spraying to treat grape worms definitively dissuaded him from adding anything to the vineyard or the winery. He acquired Ecocert organic certification and continued to produce natural products.

The terroir of Pierre Dorées

The southern Beaujolais region, with its clay and limestone, produces wines that are more structured and powerful than those from the granite soils of the north. This is the profile presented by Benoît Camus's reds: natural, straight, dense wines with long aging potential, with good acidity and well-integrated tannins, not to mention abundant, rich, and seductive fruit.

Chant Lunaire Red 2023,

Danis dans la vigne

"Chant Lunaire" represents the elegance and sweetness of Jurançon Noir, a rare grape variety from the Southwest, enhanced by Danis dans la vigne. This red wine, produced from loamy soils and vinified gently with a one-week maceration, offers a tangy and fruity profile, both light and silky. With its moderate alcohol content (11%), it is a pleasant, airy and smooth wine, perfect for convivial moments.

A delicate red

Grown in the Cahors region, this Jurançon Noir is vinified with a delicate extraction. After a year of aging in stainless steel vats, it reveals a subtle balance between freshness, roundness and suppleness, without excess tannins. This gourmet and digestible style makes it an excellent table companion, as pleasant as an aperitif as during a meal.

A seductive aromatic palette

From the first nose, "Chant Lunaire" enchants with its bright aromas of juicy cherry, blackberry and crisp red fruits, enhanced by a touch of slightly tangy black fruit. On the palate, the substance is velvety and silky, carried by a beautiful tension that reinforces its natural freshness. The long, luscious finish leaves an impression of sweetness and lightness.

A wine to share without delay

Served between 14 and 16°C, "Chant Lunaire" can be enjoyed as an aperitif, with artisanal charcuterie, roast meats, or spicy Indian cuisine, whose flavors it balances with its supple, fruity structure. With an aging potential of 5 years, it can also evolve towards even more complexity over time.

A joyful and airy wine, perfect for brightening up your evenings.

C'est reculer que d'être stationnaire Red 2023,

Danis dans la vigne

With a name as intriguing as "It's a step backward to be stationary," this cuvée by Danis dans la vigne is a true invitation to be bold. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, vinified with a short maceration, offers a fruity and delicate expression of the grape variety, far from overly tannic profiles. Grown on loamy soils in Occitanie, then aged in stainless steel vats for a year, this red wine seduces with its tangy freshness and irresistible crispness.

A lively and accessible red

Thanks to gentle vinification, this Cabernet Sauvignon is distinguished by its finesse and balance. Maceration for a few days preserves the vibrant fruit, without extracting too many tannins, giving rise to a supple and easy-to-drink cuvée. With its moderate alcohol content (12.5%), it is suitable for aperitifs as well as convivial meals.

An explosion of red fruits

The nose opens with a beautiful aromatic freshness, dominated by blackcurrant, accompanied by notes of tangy red fruits. On the palate, the texture is fluid and delicate, with a beautiful tension and a slightly spicy touch on the finish. The whole is carried by an invigorating acidity which reinforces its digestible and drinkable side.

The perfect ally for gourmet moments

Served slightly chilled (14-16°C), "C’est reculer que d’être stationnaire" will ideally accompany a platter of artisanal charcuterie, grilled poultry or an aperitif with friends. Its aging potential of 5 years will also allow you to appreciate its evolution over time.

A joyful and free red, which proves that with movement, everything becomes more alive.

Pierra Menta White 2022

Jean-Yves Péron

Pierra Menta is an exceptional organic, biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from Savoie made by Jean-Yves Péron. Classified as a Vin de France, Pierra Menta is made from the Gringet grape variety. The winemaker plans to plant more vines of this ancient variety until he reaches half a hectare.

Vinification

Gringet, which makes up 100% of Pierra Menta, is a white grape variety native to Haute-Savoie, historically linked to the commune of Ayse, near Bonneville. Jean-Yves Péron's vines are planted near Albertville, on a south-facing mica-schist plot. Gringet has long been confined to the Bonneville region and traditionally produces low-proof, high-yield sparkling wines. It is an interesting, fruity, low-alcohol grape variety with notes of quince and strong minerality. Pierra Menta's gringets are macerated for two weeks in carbonic acid, then punched down for two months, and aged for one year in 300-liter barrels.

Tasting

The quince is evident from the initial olfactory and taste, and the minerality supports this note. White fruits, florality, plenty of structure, and a nice acidity. An incredible length, too... We thank Jean-Yves for this and move on to the food and wine pairings: fish, seafood, oysters and Middle Eastern cuisine.

Jean-Yves Péron's work follows the principles of minimal intervention. On narrow and steep surfaces, his mountain vines in micro-plots, worked by hand, do not receive any synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. All of Jean-Yves Péron's wines are sulfite-free, made from hand-harvested grapes, vinified in whole bunches and foot-trodden in the vat. For all vintages, the free-run and press are blended, then aged on lees for at least one year, in two- or three-wine barrels, amphorae or tuns, before final blending. They must be stored at a temperature below 18°C. 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.

Burgundy Bedeau red 2022

Fréderic Cossard

Bedeau is an organic and natural red wine from Frédéric Cossard in the AOC/AOP Bourgogne region. While a "generic" red Burgundy, it perfectly evokes the character of its appellation and is suitable for all occasions. This is the red counterpart to the Bigotes cuvée.

Vinification

Bedeau is made from Pinot Noir vines grown on clay-limestone soils, on forty-year-old plots in Volnay and the surrounding area, as well as a plot of fifty-year-old vines in Nuits-Saint-Georges. The harvest is macerated in whole bunches.

Tasting

The nose is fresh, natural, evocative of tangy red fruits (morello cherry, plum, redcurrant). Bedeau is a beautiful, delicious and refined Pinot Noir, bursting with fresh, tangy and satiny fruit with a touch of insolence to enhance the whole. Lively and voluminous on the palate, spicy, with velvety and well-integrated tannins. Pair it with Red Meats, charcuterie, freshwater fish matelotes in red wine or beefstewed in sauce.

Frédéric Cossard and the Domaine de Chassorney gives voice to Burgundy wines (and others) in organic and natural ways, undistorted by agricultural chemicals, according to the style and convictions of this winegrower and merchant. Wherever the grapes come from, his wines bear the Cossard brand, both classic and creative.

Between viticulture and trade

Frédéric Cossard created the Domaine de Chassorney 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 trading house and buys organic grapes from the greatest climates of Burgundy, but also from Jura, Languedoc and elsewhere.

A solid commitment to nature

At Frédéric Cossard, the work of the soil and the vines is done naturally: plowing by horse, biodynamics, no chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The harvest, by hand, is carried out at full maturity. Frédéric Cossard's vintages are rare and sought-after, wines that are always highly anticipated but which sometimes require waiting.
