Potion Magique Rouge 2015, Domaine de l'Octavin A surprising and purely Jura blend of Chardonnay, Savagnin and Poulsard, grown on white and gray marl. A little mischievous, loaded with raspberry, orange peel and flowers, a truly exceptional wine supported by a fine acidity and earthy notes. The druid Panoramix, indeed, could not have done better. Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Cle a Molette Blanc 2017, Domaine de l'Octavin Naturally made from 100% of the local grape variety called Molette (hence the label), this wine is produced biodynamically on clay-limestone soils. The grapes are pressed directly; the must ferments and matures in vats for nine months. Lots of charm, yellow citrus and white flowers, and a clean, saline finish. Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Ivre de Vivre Blanc 2017, Domaine de l'Octavin A 100% Viognier from the south of Beaujolais, vinified with light skin maceration, full of vitality. Extremely fragrant and aromatic: lemon zest, honeysuckle; great freshness on the palate. A supple and pleasant texture. Notes of tropical fruits (green mango, ripe mango, lychee, mandarin), honey, citrus (orange and lemon), but also mineral: chalk, pebble, dry earth after the rain. Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Chez Fabien Rouge 2014, Domaine de l'Octavin All Gamay, a fresh, easy-drinking wine. Beautiful ruby red color, delicious and crisp nose of red fruits where we perceive smoky and mineral notes.

100% biodynamic Gamay on sandy soils, macerated for forty-five days in whole bunches, Raph'Noël does not lack personality. Fruity, juicy, it represents its grape variety well and will accompany charcuterie, red meats, grilled lamb or leg of lamb. Natural wine without added sulfites.
The Carignan cultivated by Rémi Poujol and vinified by Alice Bouvot explodes in the mouth and this obviously gives Cariboum! But Carignan represents 88% of the blend: the rest, in small proportions, consists of Muscat, Viognier and Molette. Obtained by semicarbonic maceration of whole bunches, it presents an undeniable freshness. Pretty purplish ruby color and tangy notes of blueberry, cherry, blackberry, blackcurrant and cranberry. Fruity, juicy. The white grape varieties contribute to the airy lightness of this wine and its atypical fruitiness. On the finish, licorice and bay leaf rub shoulders with cinnamon: Cariboum is ultimately very complex despite its great drinkability. Natural wine without added sulfites.
Made from equal parts Grenache and Colombard, grown biodynamically on granite and quartz soils, Grenabar is a joyful, fruity and vibrant wine, with a decidedly strawberry flavour, well-ripened tannins and attractive notes of undergrowth and humus.

Whichever way you look at it, this Gamay is very Gamay: fruity, juicy, with pleasant notes of raspberry, blackberry, licorice, and cherry.

Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Corvées de Trou-Trou Rouge 2017, L'Octavin The play on words is understandable when you know that the Trousseau vines from which this red comes grow on the Les Corvées plot, on gray marl soil on a limestone base. A wine for pleasure: how better to describe this best-seller from the Domaine de l'Octavin? This red, with a light color reminiscent of a rosé, offers notes of tobacco and black fruits on the nose. It is the result of semicarbonic maceration and aging in vats. Supple, flavorful, and refined, with notes of black fruits and bitter almond, it will be the ideal and highly drinkable companion to a romantic dinner. Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Zerlina 2016, L'Octavin One-third Pinot Noir and two-thirds Trousseau from the Curon area with its gray marl and limestone soil: this is Zerlina, whose name evokes Mozart's operas—a recurring theme for music lover Alice Bouvot. Before fermentation with indigenous yeasts and ten months of aging on fine lees in oak barrels, the harvest, which is hand-picked, is destemmed and partially pressed. Press juice and free-run juice are mixed for a clever blend: this Arbois red presents all the red fruits of Pinot and the spicy, undergrowth notes of Trousseau. The palate is frank, balanced, and structured. Natural wine with no added sulfites.
She loves 2016, L'Octavin 75% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, the union of opposites.
