Puligny Montrachet White 2022

Fréderic Cossard

This Puligny-Montrachet AOP is a dry, organic, natural white Burgundy wine vinified by Frédéric Cossard. Frédéric produces several Puligny-Montrachet vintages, including this one with no climate indication, but endowed with all the graces of this great white wine appellation from the Côte de Beaune, one of the most prestigious in Burgundy.

Vinification

Puligny-Montrachet is made from Chardonnay grown on clay-limestone soil. This is a direct-press wine, aged for at least one year.

Tasting

A marvelous fusion of richness and dryness, Frédéric Cossard's Puligny-Montrachet has great aging potential. With age, its aromas lean more and more towards earthy, mineral notes, with smoky accents and a magnificent affinity with truffle. In the meantime, it is difficult to list its pairings, as this unique wine has the gift of harmonizing with everything that is good. Still young, reserve it for fine poultry and white meats.

Gevrey Chambertin les Genevrières Qvevris Red 2022

Fréderic Cossard

Gevrey-Chambertin "Les Genevrières" Qvevris by Frédéric Cossard is an organic and natural red wine produced in Burgundy by Frédéric Cossard and aged in terracotta containers. Made in an illustrious Burgundy appellation, it is made from 100% Pinot Noir vines growing on the plot that gave its name to the cuvée.

Vinification

The Genevrières climate, in AOP Gevrey-Chambertin, is located on clay soil on a limestone base. Vinification begins with two weeks of whole-bunch maceration, followed by gentle pressing to preserve the fruit. A year of aging in terracotta (qvevri) gives additional velvety, sensuality and complexity to a wine that already offered a lot.

Tasting

The profile of a great classic red Burgundy with the freedom and breadth of nature. Black fruits, blackcurrant, blackberry, peony, red rose, delicately spiced, a touch wild… So many distinguished notes for this “Les Genevrières” 2022 vintage. You will happily pair it with local red meats such as the fine fat Mézenc from Florian Gibaud, or the high-end Spanish meats from the maison Aitana. He will also appreciate the charcuterie, the cured meats and the beef stewed in red wine.

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 as a wine broker for some time 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.

At his home, the soil and vines are worked as naturally as possible: regular horse-drawn ploughing, no addition of chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The vines are cared for 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. Reds or whites, classic Burgundies or more atypical or less "regional" bottles, Frédéric's vintages are rare and sought-after wines, which sometimes require waiting.

Feel Good Qvevris Blanc 2023

Frédéric Cossard

Quand l’amphore révèle l’âme du Savagnin…

Feel Good Qvevris 2023 est bien plus qu’un simple vin nature : c’est un manifeste de liberté signé Frédéric Cossard. Pour cette cuvée, le vigneron iconoclaste a sélectionné du Savagnin cultivé sur les terres argilo-calcaires du Jura, avant de le vinifier dans son chai de Saint-Romain, en Bourgogne. Une rencontre entre deux régions emblématiques, portée par une même exigence de pureté et d’expressivité.

Une vinification sans artifice, un élevage en amphore

La vendange est pressée directement, sans macération ni contact pelliculaire, pour préserver la finesse du cépage. Aucun intrant œnologique, aucune levure de laboratoire, seulement les levures indigènes pour déclencher la fermentation. L’élevage se fait pendant un an dans des qvevris, ces amphores géorgiennes en terre cuite qui permettent une micro-oxygénation naturelle, sans apporter de notes boisées. Ce contenant respecte l’intégrité du fruit tout en affinant sa structure.

Une bouche libre, aromatique et généreusement épicée

Au nez, le vin s’ouvre sur des notes d’agrumes confits, de résine légère, de fleurs séchées et d’épices douces. En bouche, la matière est ample, texturée, soutenue par une belle acidité et une énergie minérale vibrante. Les tanins sont absents, mais la structure, elle, est bien là : une charpente fine et saline qui étire la finale.

Des accords francs et gourmands

Il accompagnera parfaitement une planche de charcuteries artisanales, des fromages à pâte dure (comté, salers, vieux gruyère), ou une cuisine méditerranéenne à base d’herbes et d’épices. À servir entre 10 et 12°C, sans carafage. Garde possible de 5 ans, voire davantage pour les curieux.

Feel Good Savagnin Blanc 2023

Frédéric Cossard

Quand le Jura traverse la frontière bourguignonne…

Avec Feel Good Savagnin 2023, Frédéric Cossard signe une cuvée inédite, au croisement des terroirs et des sensibilités. Les raisins proviennent de belles parcelles jurassiennes, plantées sur sols argilo-calcaires, et sont ensuite vinifiés sans intrants dans le chai bourguignon de ce vigneron hors-norme, situé à Saint-Romain. À la clef, un vin blanc tranquille à l’équilibre remarquable, où l’énergie du Savagnin s’exprime sans compromis, tout en élégance.

Vinification naturelle et élevage précis

Ici, pas de chaptalisation, ni d’enzymes ou de levures exogènes. Le jus est simplement obtenu par pressurage direct, puis élevé pendant un an en œuf béton, un contenant qui favorise une micro-oxygénation douce et une belle expression aromatique sans dénaturer le vin. Le choix de cet élevage atypique, sans barrique, permet de préserver la pureté cristalline du cépage, tout en soulignant sa minéralité et sa tension naturelle.

Un vin vibrant, énergique et savoureux

Au nez, le vin dévoile une aromatique précise et tendue, entre les agrumes mûrs, la craie humide, les fleurs blanches et une subtile touche d’amande fraîche. En bouche, c’est une matière droite, salivante, portée par une fine acidité et une belle allonge minérale. Aucune lourdeur ici : tout est équilibre, fraîcheur et vitalité.

Accords et service

Parfait à l’apéritif avec des gougères au comté, il fera aussi des merveilles sur des poissons grillés, une volaille crémée ou une cuisine végétale raffinée. À servir autour de 10-12°C, sans carafage nécessaire. Potentiel de garde : 5 ans.

Perspectives Blanc 2024

Domaine de la Sorbiere

Un Bourgogne qui ouvre les horizons

Perspectives est une cuvée rare et lumineuse, issue de l’AOC Bourgogne, mais dotée d’un point de vue unique. La parcelle, située à l’extrême sud de l’appellation, flirte avec la frontière du Beaujolais. De là, le regard embrasse un panorama à 360 degrés sur deux grands vignobles : la Bourgogne et le Beaujolais. C’est cette vision ouverte, cette sensation d’espace et d’équilibre, que ce vin cherche à transmettre.

Pureté du chardonnay, élevage ancestral

Issu de chardonnay cultivé sans intrants de synthèse sur des sols de schistes, Perspective bénéficie d’une vinification naturelle en presse directe, puis d’un élevage de six mois en amphores, qui lui confère une texture limpide et une tension minérale saisissante. Aucune intervention œnologique superflue : ici, seules les levures indigènes orchestrent la fermentation, laissant le terroir s’exprimer librement.
Un blanc vibrant, plein de fraîcheur
À la dégustation, la robe est claire, brillante, d’un jaune pâle aux reflets argentés. Le nez s’ouvre sur des notes délicates de chèvrefeuille, de citron frais et une touche saline qui évoque les embruns. En bouche, c’est une vague de fraîcheur, tendue, acidulée, presque cristalline, qui accompagne une jolie profondeur fruitée. La finale est nette, longue, salivante.

Pour les grandes tables comme pour l’apéritif

Ce blanc de caractère s’accorde aussi bien avec des crustacés, des poissons cuisinés ou des champignons qu’avec des viandes blanches ou des fromages à pâte molle. Servi frais, il révèle toute sa dimension gastronomique et pourra se garder 5 à 10 ans sans sourciller.

Morey Saint Denis les Champs de la Vigne Qvevris Red 2022

Fréderic Cossard

This great organic and natural red Burgundy wine is produced by Frédéric Cossard. Made entirely from Pinot Noir (a Pinot Fin variety), it is produced in the Morey-Saint-Denis appellation and comes from the "Les Champs de la Vigne" climate. Its distinctive feature is its terracotta aging, which suits it well.

Vinification

The vines grow on a clay-limestone plot and are around sixty years old. They are made from Pinot Fin grapes, an old strain of Pinot Noir that is increasingly rare in Burgundy. The harvest macerates in whole bunches and the wine is aged in qvevri (Georgian-style terracotta jars) for at least a year. This maturation gives it a velvety patina and allows its red fruit aromas to flourish.

Tasting

Typical of the Morey-Saint-Denis climate, this Champs de la Vigne is a powerful and complex wine, offering notes of violet and red fruits. It expresses opulent fruit and remarkable minerality. Great elegance and finesse, silky and satiny with a lovely earthy and mineral nuance. The qvevri accentuates its fruitiness and the melting tannins. It will be a pleasure to pair it with grilled duck breast, grilled meats, beef, charcuterie and salted meats.
