Pinot Noir Rouge 2020,

Frédéric Cossard

Through his entirely natural work, Frédéric Cossard gives voice to the terroirs and wines of Burgundy, undistorted by agricultural chemicals. Having observed, during his years as a wine merchant, the existence of harmful winegrowing practices, the winemaker used this counterexample 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 exercise is not limited to Burgundy, as vintages are made from grapes purchased in the Jura, Languedoc, or elsewhere. At his place, the work of the soil and the vines is done as naturally as possible: regular ploughing 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 sought-after wines, which sometimes require waiting.

This Pinot Noir comes from a plot whose steep terroir, facing south-southeast, is located between 280 and 400 meters above sea level in the Saint-Romain appellation. The soils there are mainly marl, limestone and clay. The grapes macerate in whole bunches. Aging takes place for about a year in barrels. The soils and the work in the vineyard reveal the full potential of the grape variety: a deep, complex, fleshy and silky wine, packaged only in magnum format.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Jéroboam Munjebel CS Red 2013

Frank Cornelissen Delivery possible in the Île-de-France region only>
This pure Nerello Mascalese comes from an ungrafted vine in the Zottorinoto contrada, growing on the Chiusa Spagnola plot, surrounded by lava rocks, somewhat hidden in an amphitheater-like landscape and at an altitude of 620 meters. This plot was planted in 1925 and produces a deep, tannic wine, somewhat reminiscent of Nebbiolo, with a slightly less intense color than the estate's other reds.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.

Munjebel FM Rouge 2016, Frank Cornelissen
The Feudo di Mezzo plot, from which this Munjebel red comes, is very large. It is divided into two parts: the sottana, the lower part, and the soprana, or Porcaria, which is the upper part. Although relatively lower than the estate's other plots, it produces wines of remarkable elegance. The soil is quite deep, which can pose maturation problems in wet years, but the plot benefits from good ventilation, which compensates for this disadvantage. This wine is all Burgundian elegance and roundness, even in hot years: it is characterized by its finesse and adapts to the most varied dishes.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Réhoboam Contadino Red 2016

Frank Cornelissen

This entry-level red from Azienda Frank Cornelissen is made from Nerello Mascalese and a few other varieties grown on the estate: Malvasia, Moscadella, and Catarratto. The grapes are destemmed, lightly crushed, and undergo approximately sixty days of skin maceration. It is the aromatic expression of Etna, a vintage produced and blended traditionally, mixing plots and grape varieties. The result is a wine with a rich and voluptuous nose, elegant and fluid, with structure and a strong personality. Aging potential: ten years. Serving temperature: 14-15°C. Open twenty minutes before serving. Pairs well with all summer dishes, from marinated red peppers to grilled lamb and appetizers.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Magnum Munjebel CR Rouge 2016

Frank Cornelissen
This pure Nerello Mascalese comes from a partially ungrafted vine, approximately seventy years old, on the Campo Re plot, in the far west of the valley, at an altitude of 735 meters. The soil is particularly deep, and ripeness is difficult to achieve during wet years. The grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed; skin-contact fermentation lasts about sixty days. No fining, filtration before bottling. The wines are deep, elegant, and tannic. Compared to other vintages from this estate, they are somewhat similar to Nebbiolo.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.

Magnum Munjebel VA 2013

Frank Cornelissen
This pure Nerello Mascalese, produced under the IGP Terre Siciliane, comes from the basalt soils of the Cornelissen estate's three highest plots (Vigne Alte), rich in biodiversity: Tartaraci (1,000 m above sea level), Monte Dolce (870 m), and Pettinociarelle (890 m). It perfectly expresses the excellence of the old, ungrafted Nerello Mascalese vines grown on the high terraces of Etna's northern valley. It is the estate's most Burgundian vintage, with the most pronounced acidity. A balanced, structured, gourmet, and easy-to-drink cuvée, it offers plenty of crisp fruit without ever being too easy. A certain bite and freshness typical of the estate. A perfect table red, it pairs well with roasted farm-raised chicken.

Pinot Noir Red 2021

Domaine Einhart
The deep, purplish color of this Pinot Noir from Domaine Einhart evokes black cherry: this is a velvety, ripe red, 100% Pinot Noir from the estate, with an intense, fragrant, and gently fruity aroma. The first nose is enhanced by aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant, black cherry) with a hint of freshness blended into a light vanilla woodiness. The second nose is more open, with aromas of blood orange, bitter almond, and kirsch. On the palate, the small fruits are still present, supported by present but well-melted tannins, and lead to a velvety finish resting on a lovely freshness. Plenty of persistence and length. The Pinot Noirs from which it is made, aged around thirty years, grow on the muschelkalk (shell limestone) terroirs of Dittelsberg-Albermohn and are harvested by hand, then destemmed. Maceration, on indigenous yeasts, takes between ten and twelve days. Aging for one year on fine lees, in demi-muids, precedes bottling without filtration. From the vineyard to the cellar, this wine was made without any chemical additives or added sulfites. Decanting is recommended so that it fully expresses all its finesse and grace. The magnum format is only good for it, accentuating its velvety texture and depth.

To find out more
Located in the northern part of the Alsatian vineyard, horizontally above Strasbourg, the Einhart estate is a ten-hectare family property whose vines are located on the hillsides that rise between the Alsace plain and the Vosges mountains. The soil is clay-limestone and rich in fossils (muschelkalk, i.e. shell limestone and oolitic limestone, and lettenkohle or dolomitic limestone). Since 1990, Nicolas Einhart has been at the helm, now assisted by his son Théo. True to his commitments to the TIFLO association, of which he is a co-founder, Nicolas devotes his winemaking to protecting the land and biodiversity, making wine without inputs, refusing harmful phytosanitary products, and maintaining ecological refuge areas. His estate has been certified organic since 2011. Like Jean-Marc Dreyer [link], he is firmly focused on skin maceration and produces white maceration wines (orange wines) in addition to a Pinot Noir red. Entirely manual harvests, destemming of the grapes, light punching down, and delicate pressing are characteristic of the estate, as well as the separate vinification of each terroir, aging on lees, and the absence of filtration before bottling. The wines are pure grapes, lively, powerful, and tonic, and transcribe the minerality of the very beautiful terroirs of the Vosges foothills.

Muscanna Blanc 2021

Domaine Einhart
The magnum format will amplify the richness of its aromas and the smooth tannins of this Muscanna, whose color is a beautiful orange-amber, with superb brightness. The initial nose offers the rich aromas typical of overripe Muscat berries, slightly smoky. A second, very refined nose brings a hint of citrus that invites tasting. On the palate, the attack is very straightforward and ample, accompanied by a smooth acidity expressed through notes of candied quince. The finish is invigorating, with smooth tannins linked to maceration. Magnificently complex, this dry white is Domaine Einhart's homage to the Muscat grape variety, as the name of the cuvée indicates. Muscanna is indeed a 100% Alsace Muscat, grown on the estate and harvested by hand when overripe. The vines are around 25 years old and grow on the splendid oolitic limestone (muschelkalk) terroirs in the Fleckenstein, Westerberg, and Meyen areas. The harvest is destemmed, maceration in vats lasts four to six days, and fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in stainless steel vats on fine lees and is unfiltered at bottling. We recommend decanting Muscanna to help it develop its splendid aromas.

Pikade Rouge 2013, Gianfranco Manca Panevino
A blend of two century-old vines: Carignan on quartz and Monica on schist. Fermentation and aging are done in stainless steel vats. Fine, elegant, fresh, this wine for all occasions will keep for about ten years. It evokes red fruits on the bitterness: pomegranate, cranberry. The smoky and earthy note is also very present and persists in the finish.

Mec Mortel Rouge 2022

Danis dans la vigne
Mec mortel is a 100% Cahors Malbec red wine, organic and natural, made by Danis Bessières of Danis dans la vigne. With a low alcohol content (11.5% vol.), it is a small-production red wine from the Southwest of France and classified as a Vin de France.

Vinification
Under the name Mec mortel, Danis Bessières makes his new wine every year, bottled immediately after vinification. Made from the Malbec grape variety, this Southwest wine is made to be drunk early. Its acidity gives it a certain longevity, but a new wine is not a wine for laying down and there is little point in keeping it.

Tasting
Mec mortel is a new wine, everything is in the description: fluid, light, fresh, easy to drink, "loaded with cherry" as Danis says. Deliciously fruity and crisp, lots of morello cherry. Summer wine, wine for pleasure, wine for friends, to be served chilled and paired with everything you like.

Learn more about Danis dans la vigne
Under the name Danis dans la vigne, Danis Bessières vinifies organic grapes from the family estate, the Domaine de l'Antenet, which was the first organic vineyard in Cahors in the early 1980s.

Organic and natural since 1983
Danis respects the principles established in the vineyard and cellar by his grandfather and then his father: making wines without additives, organic and natural, from local grape varieties while respecting the environment. It was in 1983 that his grandfather obtained the organic label Lemaire-Boucher, followed by Nature & Progrès and then the organic labels AB and Eurofeuille. Danis Bessières continues in this vein.

Malbec, but not only
Malbec reigns supreme in the Cadurcian region, but Danis also uses Cabernets, Jurançon Noir, Merlot, and recently created grape varieties, as well as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Colombard as single-varietals. These experiments allow him to moderate the density and opacity of the main grape variety.

Green Walnut Liqueur 2017,

Distillerie Cazottes
This organic and natural green walnut liqueur from the Cazottes distillery, produced in the Gaillac region (Tarn), bears the Eurofeuille and Nature & Progrès labels. This artisanal wine-based aperitif is a great classic of traditional folk liqueur making, a true grandmother's liqueur, pesticide-free, additive-free, and 17% ABV.

Production
The fresh walnuts are harvested from the tree around Saint-Jean and macerated for nine months in a mixture of natural wine and homemade brandy. The entire process is organic. The alcohol content is low to better convey the natural flavors of the green walnut.

Tasting
We don't hesitate to call this a masterpiece given the delight and versatility of this organic green walnut liqueur from the Cazottes distillery. What complexity, and what a delicacy! A dark brown color tending towards green, a lovely cocktail of bitterness, sweetness, and depth; a buttery and roasted flavor, notes of soy sauce, coffee, and cocoa with a fruity nuance. When tasted, it is invigorating and comforting. It is perfect to accompany foie gras, charcuterie and cured meats, cheeses, chocolate… Use it to marinate white meats: rub a nice rack of pork studded with garlic an hour in advance and drizzle it with walnut liqueur while cooking. Your guests won't believe it.

Learn more about the Cazottes distillery
Laurent Cazottes, winemaker, distiller and natural liqueur maker, is a revealer of quintessences. In Villeneuve-sur-Vère, near Gaillac (Tarn), he cultivates a veritable Eden of biodiversity. On limestone soil, he cultivates fruit trees, vines, shrubs and vegetable plants, which he transforms into wines, eaux-de-vie and liqueurs.

Production secrets
First of all, the integrity of the fruit and the vine, cultivated in certified organic (Eurofeuille and Nature & Progrès labels) and biodynamically, then careful attention given to their maceration at perfect maturity in the estate's organic eau-de-vie, and finally a precise and light dosage of sugar.

The Cazottes touch
"Liqueur does not mean sweet," Laurent likes to say. The particularity of Cazottes liqueurs and eaux-de-vie is their fidelity to the raw material: it is the whole fruit that we have in our mouths, with all its nuances and its delicacy. They are low in alcohol, low in sugar: they are exceptional nectars.

Guignes et Guins Liqueur 2019,

Distillerie Cazottes
This guignes et guins liqueur is an organic and natural spirit (Eurofeuille label) produced in the Tarn region. It is a great success for the Cazottes distillery, which has many of them. It is made from two types of cherries: organic guignes (old variety black cherries) and guins (wild cherries or wild cherries) grown in Laurent Cazottes' garden, without pesticides or any additives.

Production
Once the fruit is harvested, it is pitted by hand and macerated naturally for 14 months in the estate's organic, slightly sweetened brandy. Everything is then pressed and bottled. The liqueur is 18% proof.

Tasting
Some will remember the guignolet, a cherry liqueur evoked by this liqueur of guignes and guins from the Cazottes distillery. It is an intensely fruity, dense, rich and sensual liqueur, a little tannic, with notes of red rose, cedar wood and candied cherry. A real aromatic bomb that you will love to enjoy on its own or use as a flavoring to cook a pigeon or roast duck. It will also go well with red fruit tarts. Delicious with a beef ham.

Sans Pression Sparkling White 2021

Domaine Bois Moisset
No pressure, no constraints, no stress, but always good press, vinified to perfection and with precision. This is the lesson Bois-Moisset offers us through this natural sparkling white made from Mauzac (80%), Sauvignon Blanc, and Loin-de-l'Oeil grapes totaling the remaining 20%. The color is cloudy with straw nuances. With a touch of yeast and vanilla that adds to its lightness, it offers notes of white fruits (apple, pear, white peach), warmed grass, and red fruits on the palate (strawberry, raspberry). A touch cider, it is an aromatic and tasty sparkling white wine, a sparkling pleasure that is obviously suitable for festive occasions but which also deserves to be savored without occasion, pretext or excuse.

To find out more

The name of Gaillac, the region where the Bois-Moisset estate is located, in the hands of Sylvie Ledran and Philippe Maffre, has been associated with wines since Antiquity; it is the oldest vineyard in France, with two thousand years of history and an impressive ampelothèque of ancient indigenous grape varieties. It is also a region of dazzling beauty, nicknamed "French Tuscany" because of its gentle hills planted with groves and its almost Florentine luminosity. Many estates, along with that of Bois-Moisset, showcase this uniquely rich winemaking heritage. Along with a vineyard, this is an organic mixed farm that sells its lentil, sunflower oil, cereal flour, and grape juice directly. A herd of old local breed cows also thrives there, and guest rooms are available during the summer months. It is in this small rural paradise that natural wines typical of their origin and terroir are born, on fifteen hectares of boulbènes, gravelly and sandy-loam soils carried by the Tarn for thousands of years. The grape varieties are dominated by Syrah and Duras, but the ampelographic richness of the Gaillac region (braucol, prunelart, loin-de-l'œil, etc.) is also evident in the Bois-Moisset estate's vintages, which consist particularly of red wines with crisp fruit, concentrated but with smooth and delicate tannins.
