Cuvée YARD Rouge 2022

Les Souriants

With YARD 2022, Les Souriants estate offers an original and captivating interpretation of Pinot Noir in Beaujolais, a region more accustomed to Gamay expressions. This natural red wine, certified organic, is a pure artisanal product, crafted with care and patience to offer a luminous and sincere expression of the grape variety, without embellishment or artifice.

Coming from vines grown on granitic soils, Pinot Noir finds a mineral tension and vibrant freshness here, far from clichés of opulence. The winemaking remains gentle and precise: a one-month maceration to delicately extract color, aromas, and structure, followed by one year of aging in old barrels, without new wood, to preserve the finesse of the fruit.

On the nose, it's a floral and fruity explosion: crunchy cherry, candied red fruits, fresh rose. A fine and expressive aromatic profile that extends to the palate with a beautiful texture, supple but structured. The wine combines a delicate, almost silky touch with fresh and digestible energy. The finish is straight, clean, slightly saline, leaving a persistent floral sensation in the mouth.

YARD is an elegant red, perfect for aperitifs, roasted meats, pigeon with reduced jus, or even a beautiful vegetarian dish with mushrooms. It can be enjoyed now, without decanting, or aged serenely for 5 years. Served between 16 and 18°C, it reveals the full potential of Pinot Noir in a reinvented Beaujolais, between artisanal precision and free spirit.

Camille Rouge 2022

Jean-Pierre Robinot

With Camille 2022, Jean-Pierre Robinot crafts one of his most profound and elegant cuvées. This natural red wine, made from Pineau d'Aunis grown on flint soils, perfectly embodies the winemaker's touch: a free, inspired, unadorned approach that allows the terroir and grape variety to express themselves without filter. Here, there is no official label, but a rigorous approach: soil work without chemicals, winemaking without exogenous yeasts or enological additives, and a long, patient aging process.

Maceration, which can last from 1 to 8 months depending on the expression of each vintage and each plot, gives this cuvée remarkable aromatic intensity and an extraordinary texture. The 2-year aging in old barrels enhances the whole, bringing patina and depth without ever masking the fruit.

The captivating nose combines ripe red and black fruits, sweet spices, peppery notes, herbaceous touches, and a hint of fine caramel that evokes the slow evolution in the barrel. On the palate, the wine surprises with its tactile lightness, almost airy, despite its concentration. The tannins are melted, the structure is straight, and the finish lingers, with a mineral vibration marked by flint.

Camille is a gastronomic wine par excellence, to be paired with grilled red meats, spiced dishes, or even roasted game. It can be enjoyed today after decanting, but will gain even more complexity over 10 years and beyond. Served at around 14 to 16°C, it will reveal all the poetry of a great Pineau d'Aunis aged with patience and precision.

The Roaring Twenties Ace: Magnum Rosé Pétillant 2018

Jean-Pierre Robinot

The excellence of aged pét-nat

With this sparkling cuvée, Jean-Pierre Robinot once again demonstrates the expressive power of natural wines patiently aged. No oenological intervention, no inputs, no rushing: only the alchemy of time, terroir, and grapes. The result, here in magnum, offers a gastronomic and vibrant bubble, perfect for large gatherings or cellaring.

Ancestral method, prolonged aging, generous format

A blend of Chenin and Pineau d'Aunis, this sparkling rosé is made using the ancestral method: natural fermentation interrupted, then resumed in the bottle without any additions. The wine then rests for a long time on laths, in several-wine barrels, to gain texture and complexity. The schist soil provides tension and verticality.

Quince, flowers, and red berries: a chiseled bubble

The nose evokes fresh quince, white flowers, and tart red berries. The palate is ample, very slightly creamy, but lively, with a fine, perfectly integrated bubble. The long aging on laths is felt in the texture and aromatic persistence. A natural sparkling cuvée that combines freshness and sophistication.

Pairings & serving: festive and refined

To share as an aperitif with fine charcuterie, or to accompany spicy dishes with sweet or oriental spices. This magnum should be served between 10 and 12°C, without decanting. It is ready to drink, but can still evolve in the cellar for lovers of mature bubbles.
