Cinsault Cuve n°5, Rouge 2023
Fond Cyprès
Le Cinsault retrouve ses lettres de noblesse avec cette cuvée parcellaire signée Fond Cyprès, dans une interprétation toute en subtilité et en franchise. Issu d’un terroir argilo-calcaire du Languedoc, certifié bio (label Eurofeuille), ce vin rouge naturel est une belle démonstration du potentiel de ce cépage trop souvent relégué au second plan.
Un vin naturel, vinifié avec précision
Après une macération d’une semaine, le raisin fermente spontanément en levures indigènes, sans aucun intrant œnologique. Le vin est ensuite élevé pendant six mois en cuve bois, ce qui lui confère à la fois rondeur et structure, tout en préservant la fraîcheur de l’expression aromatique.
Élégance, fruit et légèreté
Au nez, la cerise griotte domine, avec une jolie pureté et une touche florale délicate. En bouche, l’attaque est souple, la matière fluide, les tanins soyeux. Le vin déroule avec finesse, sans excès, mais avec une longueur étonnante pour un vin de ce degré d’alcool (12 %). Une vraie personnalité, entre légèreté et précision.
À ouvrir sans hésitation (ou à garder)
Servez-le légèrement rafraîchi, entre 16 et 18 °C, sur une charcuterie fine, un barbecue d'été, des viandes rôties ou des plats du quotidien qui appellent un rouge frais, digeste et vivant. Cette cuvée peut se boire dès maintenant, mais sa tenue permet aussi une garde de 5 à 10 ans. Une belle surprise signée Fond Cyprès.
Cyprès de Toi, Blanc 2024
Fond Cyprès
Avec Cyprès de Toi, le domaine Fond Cyprès signe une cuvée de Chardonnay bio venue du Languedoc, au style étonnamment frais et aérien. Ce vin blanc tranquille, issu de presse directe et élevé en cuve inox, met en avant la pureté du fruit, la vivacité du cépage et la gourmandise simple d’un vin naturel accessible.
Un Chardonnay sans maquillage
Cultivé sur des sols argilo-calcaires, le Chardonnay est vendangé tôt pour préserver son acidité naturelle. Pressé directement, il fermente en levures indigènes sans ajout d’intrants œnologiques, puis il est élevé six mois en cuve inox, afin de conserver toute sa fraîcheur et son éclat aromatique. Le résultat : un vin droit, limpide, prêt à boire.
Un blanc vif, floral et désaltérant
Le nez évoque des fleurs blanches, du citron frais et une légère touche de pomme verte. En bouche, c’est la tension qui domine : attaque vive, corps léger, finale nette et citronnée. Un vin qui se boit avec une grande facilité, sans lourdeur, mais avec une expression précise du cépage dans un climat ensoleillé.
À déguster sans attendre
Servi entre 10 et 12 °C, Cyprès de Toi est parfait à l’apéritif, mais s’exprime aussi très bien sur des crustacés, fruits de mer, poissons grillés ou des viandes blanches aux herbes. À boire dans les deux ans pour en apprécier toute la fraîcheur et l’éclat.

Canoupe Blanc 2023
Danis dans la vigne
Un blanc vibrant du Sud-Ouest, à la fraîcheur éclatante
Canoupe 2023 est une ode à la légèreté et à la vivacité. Derrière cette cuvée se cache Danis dans la vigne, jeune domaine engagé en agriculture biologique dans le terroir encore confidentiel de Cahors, au cœur du Sud-Ouest. Ici, le Colombard, cépage aromatique souvent sous-estimé, est mis à l’honneur dans une version pure, directe et profondément rafraîchissante.
Vinifié en presse directe, sans intrants œnologiques, avec les seules levures indigènes, ce blanc naturel est élevé 8 mois en cuve inox, afin de préserver l’expression la plus sincère du fruit. Le sol argilo-calcaire apporte tension et minéralité à l’ensemble, et le faible degré alcoolique (11,5 %) accentue sa buvabilité. On est loin des clichés lourds du Sud-Ouest : ici, tout respire l’agilité, la transparence et la sincérité.
Nez expressif et bouche éclatante
À l’ouverture, le nez séduit immédiatement par des arômes d’agrumes frais, de citron jaune, relevés de délicates touches de fleur d’oranger. En bouche, la texture est fluide, tendue, avec une belle acidité naturelle qui appelle une gorgée après l’autre. C’est un vin d’apéritif idéal, mais aussi un formidable compagnon des viandes blanches, de poissons grillés ou même de plats exotiques aux saveurs citronnées.
Ce Colombard 100 % naturel se savoure dès aujourd’hui, sans carafage, à 10-12°C, mais pourra aussi évoluer doucement sur 2 ans. Une cuvée lumineuse, joyeuse et sincère, parfaite pour celles et ceux qui cherchent à redécouvrir le Sud-Ouest autrement.
Coince ta bulle 2023 sparkling rosé
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
In the heart of the Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation, on the right bank of the Gironde estuary, flourish the vines of Château Frédignac, a family estate driven by the sincere commitment of Vignobles L'Amouller. It is here, on sunny and breezy slopes, that Merlot finds its ideal expression. This emblematic Bordeaux variety, usually vinified as a red wine, reveals itself here in an unexpected and seductive light: as a naturally sparkling rosé. The temperate climate and clay-limestone soils of the vineyard lend the "Coince ta bulle" cuvée a beautiful freshness, a natural vivacity, and a crisp fruitiness that evokes the pure pleasure of the moment.
Cultivation methods
True to a peasant philosophy that respects all living things, the estate is managed using certified organic farming methods, bearing the AB and Nature & Progrès labels. Here, the vines are nurtured without synthetic inputs, in a careful balance between soil, plant, and human intervention. Biodiversity is encouraged, treatments are gentle and measured, and every intervention is carried out with the aim of preserving the soil's identity and the purity of the fruit. This approach naturally extends to the cellar, where the "Coince ta bulle" cuvée is crafted using the ancestral method: a single fermentation, without the addition of yeasts or sulfites, resulting in a brut sparkling wine that is spontaneous and vibrant. A free wine, reflecting the spirit of those who make it.
Tasting & pairings
"Coince ta bulle" 2023 is an invitation to lightness, freshness, and the simple joy of a shared moment. Its pale pink, delicately cloudy color heralds a vibrant nose of small red fruits—fresh strawberry, tangy raspberry—mingled with a lively touch of pink grapefruit. On the palate, the bubbles are fine and joyful, with a crisp and thirst-quenching attack. The fruit expresses itself naturally, in a perfect balance between natural sweetness and saline tension.
Ideal for relaxed moments, this naturally sparkling rosé is the perfect accompaniment to a summer aperitif, a platter of grilled vegetables, sushi, or marinated fish. It also works wonders at a barbecue with friends, where its light and fruity character refreshes the palate and sparks conversation. A wine for pure enjoyment, sincere and unpretentious, proving that natural wines can also be festive.
Vin du conservatoire White 2024
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
Nestled in the unexpected corners of Beaujolais, far from the clichés of ubiquitous Gamay, the 2024 Vin du Conservatoire unveils a little-known and profoundly vibrant facet of this generous land. Crafted by the Tribu Alonso, a collective of winemakers passionate about biodiversity and freedom, this still white wine draws its originality from an atypical plot where Grenache Blanc and Macabeu coexist in perfect harmony. But the magic also comes from a unique, symbiotic planting: Muscat Chardonnay, Floreal, Villard Blanc, and Alain Bouquet intertwine in a vegetal ballet that is both free and precise. Here, each grape variety plays its part in rhythm with the seasons, for a collective expression of the terroir, far from the beaten path.
Cultivation methods
The Tribu Alonso cultivates much more than grapes: it cultivates a philosophy. A philosophy of unconditional respect for all living things, without artifice or labels, but with a keen awareness of the winemaker's role as guardian of a fragile balance. No synthetic treatments, constant observation of the vines, and minimal intervention in the cellar: this is the credo of this committed tribe. Winemaking follows the same guiding principle, where the human hand guides rather than corrects. The result? A wine without makeup, naturally fermented, that expresses the richness of its ecosystem in every glass.
Tasting & pairings
From the first whiff, the 2024 Vin du Conservatoire captivates with its floral finesse: delicate violet, spring white blossoms, and a light whisper of ripe apricot that caresses the senses. On the palate, the tension is palpable, with a vibrant acidity that structures the wine without making it stiff. The texture is supple, almost caressing, carried by a subtly saline and lingering finish. One finds there that sensation of purity, like spring water flowing through living soil.
At the table, this characterful white wine is wonderful as an aperitif, where its freshness awakens the taste buds. It then reveals itself to be a perfect match for smoked fish, trout gravlax, or white meats with herbs, highlighting their aromas without ever overpowering them.
A rare, free and vibrant wine, which tells its own story of Beaujolais.
Gabbrodo White 2022
De Vini
De Vini's (Vinilibre) Gabbrodo 2022 is an ode to the terroir of the Pays Nantais. This natural wine, made without any additives, expresses with finesse the Melon de Bourgogne, the region's emblematic grape variety. Grown in gabbro soils, a rare volcanic rock in the Loire Valley, it benefits from nine months of aging in sandstone amphorae, imparting remarkable purity and tension to this exceptional white wine.
Its pale, golden robe heralds a luminous and crystalline wine. The nose seduces with its freshness and aromatic complexity: notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white fruits (pear, peach), and a touch of iodine that recalls its maritime origins. On the palate, the attack is crisp and lively, driven by a beautiful acidity and a sharp minerality. Aging in amphorae imparts a silky texture while preserving the wine's tension and freshness. The finish is long and saline, with a delicately smoky persistence that invites further tasting.
The 2022 Gabbrodo proves to be an ideal companion for seafood. It will perfectly complement scallops with truffles, grilled lobster, sea bass baked in a salt crust, or pike-perch with beurre blanc sauce. Served between 10 and 12°C, it can be enjoyed now for its vibrant freshness or cellared for 5 to 10 years to reveal its full complexity.
Perspectives White 2024
Domaine de la Sorbiere
A Burgundy that opens up new horizons
Perspectives is a rare and luminous cuvée, originating from the Bourgogne AOC, but boasting a unique perspective. The plot, located at the southernmost edge of the appellation, borders Beaujolais. From there, the view encompasses a 360-degree panorama of two great wine regions: Burgundy and Beaujolais. It is this expansive vision, this sense of space and balance, that this wine seeks to convey.
Purity of Chardonnay, ancestral aging
Made from Chardonnay grapes grown without synthetic inputs on schist soils, Perspective benefits from natural vinification using direct pressing, followed by six months of aging in amphorae, which gives it a limpid texture and striking mineral tension. No superfluous oenological intervention: here, only indigenous yeasts orchestrate the fermentation, allowing the terroir to express itself freely.
A vibrant white, full of freshness
On tasting, the wine is clear, bright, and a pale yellow with silvery highlights. The nose opens with delicate notes of honeysuckle, fresh lemon, and a touch of salinity reminiscent of sea spray.

La Tour Sarazine White 2022
La Tour Sarazine is an organic, biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from Jean-Yves Péron. Made from Muscat à Petit Grain, this white wine macerated in Vin de France is sometimes blended with Jacquère when the vintage is low-yielding.
Vinification
Sourced from a schistose micro-plot in the Albertville vineyard, the La Tour Sarazine harvest ferments using carbonic maceration for fifteen days. After pressing, it is aged for one year in tuns and barrels. Unfiltered, unfined, no added sulfites.
Tasting
Jean-Yves Péron's Tour Sarazine has a very muscat profile – musky, floral, aromatic, exotic – reinforced by the mineral clarity of Savoyard schist. For pairings, it's a call to the imagination, between cheeses and cuisines from elsewhere: for the former, we recommend them creamy, and for the latter, don't hesitate to delve into Asian repertoires.
Learn more about Jean-Yves Péron
Jean-Yves Péron is a talented embodiment of 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.
Les Œillets Blanc 2022
Jean-Yves Péron
Vinified in Savoie, Les Œillets is a dry macerated white wine made by Jean-Yves Péron. Organic, biodynamic, and natural, it is a 100% Jacquère white, with no additives or added sulfites, classified as a Vin de France.
Vinification
Les Œillets comes from the same terroir as La Petite Robe (the clay-limestone soils of the lieu-dit Les Marches, at the foot of Mont Granier), but it is harvested later to achieve greater phenolic maturity and a higher tannin concentration. Carbonic maceration for four or five days is followed by a month of punching down in vats. At least one year of aging in 300-liter barrels.
Tasting
Woody, with explosive minerality and beautiful tension, Les Œillets by Jean-Yves Péron is an atypical white wine with powerful aromatic notes. Lots of fruit and candied citrus. Superbly structured, Les Œillets has chewiness, texture, a tannic mouthfeel and a note of controlled oxidation. The tension is strong, balanced by a note of apricot. This is a wine for roasted poultry and high-end cured meats, but its pairings are broad.
