Riesling Origin Blanc 2020
Jean-Marc Dreyer
Green fruits, balanced acidity, elegance, complexity: a wine for meditation. Jean-Marc Dreyer's Origin range is dedicated to single-varietal cuvées based on Alsatian varieties. Here, whole-bunch maceration exposes Riesling in a completely new light: ignoring the petrol notes (which are present, but politely wait until the finish to manifest themselves), the wine expresses a structured verticality balanced by a gentle roundness. Very mineral, but this time it's the soil that we sense, not the gas can. This wine was aged for eleven months in the Alsatian style, that is, in foudres and demi-muids. Taste pairings? Don't look, it goes with everything. Biodynamic method, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or cellar.

"Maceration in Alsace is a tradition!" says Jean-Marc Dreyer, adding that direct pressing in this region is a modern invention, linked to the advent of electricity. In the past, we worked by hand and let the grapes macerate before sending the marc to the press." Whole-bunch maceration is Jean-Marc Dreyer's signature and represents 85% of the estate's production, the rest consisting of direct-pressed whites, often aged using gentle oxidation. Jean-Marc succeeds several generations of his family at the Dreyer & Fils estate, established in 1830 between Obernai and Molsheim. Upon taking over the estate, he immediately opted for biodynamics, but he hesitated for a while between several methods: at first, his wines were more oaky, aged in new barrels with stirring. Then, a sweet period: all his wines contained residual sugar. In 2008, he tried vinifying without any sulfur and found his direction: the following winter, upon returning from the pilgrimage to Compostela, he swore never to add sulfur to any wine again. Having made this decision, he affirmed his style around skin maceration, quite extensive, chiseled, always surprising on Alsatian grape varieties, whose structure it brings out without sacrificing delicacy. Jean-Marc works in single-varietal or blended vintages and also produces Pinot Noir reds of surprising depth.
Auxerrois Origin Blanc 2020,
Jean-Marc Dreyer
With his Origin range, Jean-Marc Dreyer highlights Alsatian grape varieties through unique and committed winemaking. Auxerrois Origin 2020 is a vibrant interpretation of this grape variety, also known as Pinot Blanc, vinified using whole bunch maceration, giving it superb aromatic intensity and a captivating texture.
A natural wine, blending tradition and modernity
Based on biodynamic methods, Jean-Marc Dreyer cultivates his vines with absolute respect for all living things. Fermentation is carried out solely by indigenous yeasts, without additives or artificial ingredients. Unfiltered and unclarified, this macerated Auxerrois reveals a unique personality, combining purity and complexity. Its precise aging and artisanal method result in a dense, dry, and structured wine, driven by a magnificent salinity and an intense aromatic expression.
An atypical and seductive white
Its amber color with golden highlights testifies to its maceration. The nose is an intoxicating bouquet of white flowers, stone fruits, and sweet spices, with a slightly oxidative touch reminiscent of great macerated wines. On the palate, the attack is ample and vibrant, offering a nice tension and a saline finish that prolongs the pleasure. A wine that is fresh, straightforward, and delicious, a true sensory experience.
Food pairings and tasting moments
Served between 12 and 14°C, Auxerrois Origin pairs perfectly with a plate of Ibérico de Bellota ham, a grilled fish with citrus fruits, or even mature cheeses such as an old Comté or a mature Munster. Its structured character also allows it to accompany spicy dishes or fusion cuisine.

Nicolas Chemarin
As expected, all-granitic Chardonnay, the white counterpart to the P'tit Grobis cuvée, classified as a Vin de France, offers a pale, opalescent yellow color. The sensations of this white Beaujolais-Villages are complex and difficult to summarize: first, on the nose and palate, the lactic, yeasty note is present. The fresh acidity is accompanied by flint, notes of white flowers, and a youthful expressiveness. Drinking young, it expresses its youthfulness well, and a little age reveals white fruits, a slight richness, and sweet notes. The harvest is directly pressed, followed by settling during which the winemaker takes care not to steal all the fine lees from the wine.

Nicolas Chemarin, nicknamed "P'tit Grobis" as a resident of Marchampt (Beaujolais), is the fourth generation of winemaker on his family wine estate in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, on stony land where he crafts wines of surprising depth and sincerity. In 2005, he took over two hectares of vines from his father and in 2006 he produced his first vintages. In 2008, he acquired other vines and decided to devote himself solely to his estate, whose very steep terroir consists of poor, rocky soils on gray granite rock. The vines rest on the bedrock through very thin soil, and their roots plunge deep into the rock. Depending on the configuration of the soil, the vines are pruned in goblet or raised on stakes. Their average age is eighty years. The grape varieties, Gamay and Chardonnay, are classically Beaujolais. Nicolas also cultivates two other terroirs in the Régnié appellation: Les Bullats, with light, filtering sandy soils, and La Haute Ronze, very close to Morgon, whose deeper, clayey soils produce full-bodied wines. The vintages undergo long macerations (from 18 to 30 days) with punching down and temperature control (Nicolas works cold, around 20°C). The aging is done partially in thermoregulated concrete vats for a third, the remaining two thirds passing into barrels of four to ten wines in order to provide oxygenation but little or no woody sensation. Nicolas Chemarin is already very well known in the natural world for his sweet and fruity vintages, wines of pleasure, and for vintages from difficult and magnificent terroirs, provided with admirable and complex mineral, aromatic and spicy notes.

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 viticultural 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 for some time as a wine broker before creating the Chassorney estate 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 trading house and buys 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 crus. The practice is not limited to Burgundy, as vintages are made from grapes purchased in the Jura, Languedoc, and elsewhere. At his farm, the soil and vines are worked as naturally as possible: regular horse-drawn ploughing, no addition of chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The vines are tended 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. 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.
Es d’aqui Trachéo Red 2019
A superb wine, refined and fresh, beautifully fruity. A nose of raspberry, rose, licorice, and Languedoc garrigue. On the palate, very well-integrated tannins. Beautiful energy, sunshine, and plenty of structure. This is a pure Grenache, made from grapes grown in the schist soils of Cabrerolles, in the Faugères region. It has a aging potential of six or seven years, but can be enjoyed now. The harvest macerates for twenty-three days in whole bunches and the wine is aged in resin vats.

A child of Ariège, Jean-Louis Pinto chose to stay in the country and make wines that resemble their terroir, hence the name Es d’Aqui (“It’s, it’s from here”) that he gave to his winemaking business, located in Moulin-Neuf, a town near Aude, between Mirepoix and Limoux. A region where vines once abounded, until the major mildew attacks at the beginning of the 20th century. Jean-Louis buys grapes grown organically by other winegrowers, his friends, in whom he has complete confidence. He doesn’t just buy the product, he monitors the fruit set, the ripening, and makes regular visits until August, in order to know the grapes before harvesting them. He vinifies it at home using natural methods, practicing long macerations with whole bunches. A three-week maceration is common for him, as are very gentle pressings in a vertical press. He says he has "a lot of vines in common" with his friend Anthony Tortul (La Sorga, see link). His collection area extends throughout the Languedoc, particularly in the Hérault, around Adissan, Faugères and Saint-Chinian, as well as in the Aude (Limoux) and Tarn (Gaillac), two terroirs that are dear to him. It turns out that the typical Languedoc soils – schist, basalt, pebbles, clay-siliceous – particularly appeal to him for the freshness they give to the wines. "I make wines from the South," he says. "I especially look for terroirs that give freshness, even if the wines have an alcohol content of 14%." » The grape varieties are, of course, typically Languedoc: Grenache, Carignan, Mauzac, Cinsault, Braucol, Duras and Sauvignon. The most powerful reds are made in five terracotta jars, which help him control the extraction and give his wines, he says, "a very crystalline side." The soil, the location, as we understand it, are of the utmost importance to him: once again, the name of his estate Es d'Aqui was not chosen by chance.
Zerlina Rouge 2018,
Domaine de l’Octavin
This Arbois wine showcases the full range of red fruits from Pinot Noir combined with the spicy and undergrowth notes from Trousseau. The palate is straightforward, balanced, and structured. Zerlina, whose name evokes Mozart's operas—a recurring theme for music lover Alice Bouvot—is composed of one-third Pinot Noir and two-thirds Trousseau from the En Curon plot, with gray marl and limestone soil. The harvest is hand-picked, destemmed, and partially pressed before fermentation with indigenous yeasts and aging for ten months on fine lees in oak barrels. Press juice and free-run juice are then mixed to create a clever blend. This wine is made entirely without chemical additives.

"You don't need anything," says Alice Bouvot, winemaker at Domaine de l'Octavin, "just grapes that are happy in their own skin." Everything is said in favor of natural wine; it's a perfect description. Created in 2005, Domaine d'Alice is located in Arbois, in the wine-growing Jura region, often described as the most organic vineyard in France. The practice of making - among other things - oxidative wines is a good preparation for natural wine, as this type of wine does not allow any chemical additives and especially no sulfites. It's a secret of this magnificent region. Originally spread over two hectares, the estate, managed entirely biodynamically (Demeter) since 2010, has expanded through the gradual acquisition of plots and now covers seven hectares.
An accomplished musician and passionate music lover, Alice intends to apply her musical sensitivity to the wines she makes. She draws a parallel between the technical perfection of conventional wines which risks excluding feeling, while "a musician who does not know music theory and plays with his guts creates emotion." For her, living wine is like this: instinctive, improvised, emotional. Introduced to natural wine by Stéphane Planche, sommelier at chef Jean-Paul Jeunet in Arbois, she will faithfully follow this path. The sometimes whimsical titles of her vintages are inspired sometimes by musical art (Dorabella, Zerline), sometimes by the numerous plots of land that make up her vineyard (En Curon, Les Corvées, En Poussot, etc.), and do not disdain a pun from time to time. Likewise, the labels adorned with happy and salacious little gnomes are a signature of the estate. As for the grape varieties, they are the classics of the Jura - Poulsard, Trousseau, Pinot Noir for the reds, and Chardonnay, Savagnin for the whites. Alongside her Arbois wines, Alice has created a business of "on the vine" grapes (Ecocert certified) with her winegrower friends from the region. Natural, committed, joyful and highly drinkable, the wines of Alice Bouvot are all the more coveted as the vintages, produced in plot-by-plot mode, appear, disappear and reappear depending on the vintage and inspiration.
Commendatore Rouge 2018,
Domaine de l'Octavin
Commendatore is a charming wine, full of red fruits, spices, aromatic herbs, and mineral notes. Savory, long, and persistent, it owes its long maceration to complex aromas supported by high acidity and well-integrated tannins. Made from 100% biodynamically grown trousseau grapes on a gray-limestone marl terroir, it is elegant and intense like the statue of the Commander, but infinitely less threatening. Made without any additives in the vineyard or cellar, it is a perfect companion for red meats and game, but it will also not disdain a veal on the bone long roasted in a casserole.

i Vicini Favorita Blanc 2019,
Jean-Yves Peron
Near Lake Annecy, in Chevaline, Jean-Yves Péron combines committed viticulture and merchant winemaking (particularly in Northern Italy), both with a focus on nature. His Mondeuse reds are magnificent, as are his whites made from old local grape varieties—Jacquère, Altesse, Bergeron, and Persan. He lives in Chevaline, but his current vineyard, three hectares of which have been biodynamic since the beginning, is divided between Conflans, near Albertville, and Fréterive, a little further downstream in the Isère Valley. Savoyard wine has long suffered from a somewhat flimsy image, not taken seriously enough. Yet, what treasures are produced by its varied soils and numerous old grape varieties! Jean-Yves Péron embodies the rebirth of this beautiful vineyard.
Initially destined for a career in biochemistry, Jean-Yves quickly fell in love with the vine and trained as an oenologist in Bordeaux. He learned his trade as a winemaker with Thierry Allemand in Cornas, then with Bruno Schueller in Alsace, before spending some time in New Zealand and the United States. His trading business, which he began in 2011, allows him to buy the harvest from organic winemakers near his home and in Italy: for him, it gives a new dimension to his work as a winemaker, allowing him to multiply the terroirs and deepen his experiences in winemaking and aging.
Jean-Yves Péron's winemaking follows the principles of minimal intervention. On narrow and steep surfaces, his mountain vines receive no synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. The surrounding vegetation is extremely rich: it protects the vines and helps strengthen them. The soils are grassed, mown, and reworked with a pickaxe and winch. The harvest is entirely manual. Once vatted in whole bunches, the grapes, both red and white, undergo a semi-carbonic maceration that allows the extraction of fresh fruit aromas. This maceration time varies between five days and nine weeks depending on the vintage. The day before or two days before pressing, Jean-Yves performs foot-treading directly in the vat. After this fermentation, the musts are sent to barrels for aging on lees for twelve months in five hundred liter barrels of two or three wines (to limit the oaky sensation), followed by blending and resting in the vat. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.
In 2017, Jean-Yves Péron decided to expand his range by collecting organic grapes in the heart of Piedmont, Italy. The result was several vintages, including this 100% Favorita white, a local variety so close to Vermentino (Rolle in France) that the two grape varieties are considered identical. We therefore have a sort of non-maritime Vermentino, with the signature of a more continental terroir and climate. The wine is the result of a two-week skin maceration. It offers the characteristics of the grape variety: a beautiful acidic base, tension, due to the plot and the terroir. It is tasty, semi-aromatic in the manner of certain Alsatian grape varieties: perfumed without being exotic, with a minerality of young vines grown on a semi-slope, at the top of a small ridge which allows for a nice maturity.

This 100% Jacquère white, grown on limestone soil, results from two weeks of skin maceration followed by a year of barrel aging. For this cuvée, Jean-Yves waits for a more advanced phenolic maturity of the grapes in order to obtain a greater tannic concentration. Superbly structured, it offers chewiness and texture. The tension is strong, balanced by a hint of apricot. Woody, with explosive minerality and beautiful tension, this is a very atypical maceration white.

Fond Cyprès
This Languedoc estate is built on solid foundations: its two winemakers, Rodolphe and Laetitia, are also descendants of winemakers. Even before planting their first vine, they already had a clear objective: "to produce southern wines that reflect our style, wines with character, rooted in our soils, with freshness and refined tannins." They want to create entirely natural wines, concentrated terroir. In the heart of the ancient Corbières massif, they are taking over an old estate already planted with abandoned Carignan and Grenache grapes, which have seen neither fertilizer nor pesticides for years: these clean, vibrant soils are ideal conditions for launching into natural winemaking. Around this historic heart, they first planted Grenache Noir and Syrah, then a plot of white grape varieties: Viognier, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne. The estate has been Ecocert certified since 2010 and also complies with the Nature & Progrès charter. The vinification is done without the addition of sulfites or exogenous yeasts. "We make wines for pleasure," say Laetitia and Rodolphe. For them, natural wine is first assessed by taste, from the harvest. The vintages closely follow the plots, the musts are fruity, fluid, and complex. The wines of Fond Cyprès poetically evoke the estate's ecosystem and the vegetation that protects the plots: the pine forests, the shady springs, the beauty of the natural environment that brings freshness to the wines and leaves the soil's signature. Deliciously balanced between mineral imprint, vegetal environment and fruit expression, the wines of Fond Cyprès reflect the South: the caress of its sun, but also the freshness of its shadows.
This all-Grenache shaped by the limestone and blue marl soils of Escales, vinified and aged in stainless steel vats, is a seducer, dazzlingly fresh and delicious enough to evoke the most diverse culinary pairings. Wonderfully balanced, taut and yet affable, it first overturns on the table a basket of white fruits - ripe and crisp nashi pear, cottage garden pear - which quickly give way to exotic notes on the mid-palate: a fine touch of mango and apricot. In the background, wild thyme, thyme, garrigue, a breath of fig leaf and fresh lemon. A broad and generous palette that lends itself to all moments.

Nicolas Chemarin, nicknamed P'tit Grobis as a resident of Marchampt (Beaujolais), is the fourth generation of winegrowers on his family estate in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, on stony land where he crafts wines of surprising depth and sincerity. In 2005, he took over two hectares of his father's vines and produced his first vintages in 2006. In 2008, he acquired additional vines and decided to devote himself solely to his estate, whose very steep terroir consists of poor, rocky soils over gray granite rock. The vines rest on the bedrock through very thin soil, and their roots plunge deep into the rock. Depending on the soil configuration, the vines are pruned in goblet or raised on stakes. Their average age is eighty years. The grape varieties, Gamay and Chardonnay, are classically Beaujolais. Nicolas also cultivates two other terroirs in the Régnié appellation: Les Bullats, with light, filtering sandy soils, and La Haute Ronze, very close to Morgon, whose deeper, clayey soils produce full-bodied wines. The vintages undergo long macerations (from 18 to 30 days) with punching down and temperature control (Nicolas works cold, around 20°C). Aging is partially done in temperature-controlled concrete vats for a third, the remaining two-thirds being spent in barrels of four to ten wines to provide oxygenation but little or no oaky sensation. Nicolas Chemarin is already well-known in the natural world for his delicious and fruity vintages, wines for pleasure, and for vintages from difficult and magnificent terroirs, endowed with admirable and complex mineral, aromatic and spicy notes.
All granitic Chardonnay as it should be, the white counterpart of the P’tit Grobis cuvée offers a pale opalescent yellow color. The harvest goes through direct pressing, followed by settling that does not rob the wine of all its fine lees. The sensations are complex and difficult to summarize: first, on the nose as on the palate, the lactic, yeasty note is present. The fresh acidity is accompanied by flint, notes of white flowers and a youthful expressiveness. Drink young, it expresses its youth well, and a little age reveals white fruits, a light fat and delicious notes.
Natural wine without added sulfites.

P’tit Grobis rouge is a wine of incredible vitality, capable of converting even the most refractory to Beaujolais. It is Nicolas’s most personal vintage, which he named after his nickname in the country. One hundred percent Gamay in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, it is delicious, fruity, mineral and taut. Gamay noir à jus blanc at its most enjoyable, gurgling but with elegance.

Frédéric Cossard
Through his entirely natural work, Frédéric Cossard gives voice to the terroirs and Burgundy wines, undistorted by agricultural chemicals. Having observed, during his years as a wine merchant, the existence of harmful viticultural practices, the winemaker used this counterexample to practice unadulterated viticulture. Thus, he produces vintages of unadulterated purity and elegance that are among the most sought-after in Burgundy. Frédéric worked as a wine broker for some time before creating the Chassorney estate 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 trading house and buys 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 crus. 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 coveted wines, which sometimes need to be waited for. The Bigotes white is produced on a small plot of Chardonnay in the Burgundy regional appellation. It is, in a way, the white counterpart of the Bedeau red. The vinification benefits from the velvety, depth and sweetness of the fermentation and aging in qvevri, buried terracotta jars. The aromatic attack is distinctly lemony and continues with yellow fruits. On the palate, it's full-bodied, full-bodied, and delicious, with a touch of fat and plenty of persistence. For a generic wine, it's a lovely height.

A beautiful Pinot Noir full of finesse. The harvest comes from plots of forty-year-old vines in Volnay and the surrounding area, and from a plot of fifty-year-old vines in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Bedeau presents a sumptuous and satiny fruit and a touch of insolence to enhance the whole.

This premier cru cuvée comes from the plot known as Abbaye de Morgeot, located at the foot of the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation, with high-quality clay-limestone soils. The nose attacks beautifully with notes of citrus and a complex bouquet. The palate is fresh and mineral, full-bodied, rich, nuanced. Lots of white fruits, white flowers and honey. Clay gives it richness, limestone gives it freshness. A classic white Burgundy.
