Regard Rouge 2022
Jean-Pierre Robinot
With "Regard" 2022, Jean-Pierre Robinot continues his demanding work as a winemaker-poet, delivering an energetic interpretation of Pineau d'Aunis, an emblematic Loire grape variety that is still too little known. This natural wine, without a label but adhering to a rigorous ethic (zero chemical inputs in the vineyard, natural vinification without exogenous yeasts or oenological inputs), is an ode to terroir and purity.
Made from vines planted on flint soils, the wine benefits from a unique terroir that gives it tension and brilliance. A short one-week maceration preserves the finesse of the grape variety, while revealing its most expressive characteristics: juicy red fruits, black pepper, herbs, and a smoky touch, like a light mist over an undergrowth. On the palate, "Regard" impresses with its delicate yet assertive structure, with a long year-long aging in multi-vintage barrels, bringing complexity and depth without ever dominating the fruit.
The palate is vibrant, intense, almost explosive. A beautiful tannic structure accompanies a fresh and persistent finish. The wine lends itself to assertive gastronomy: grilled or stewed red meats, dishes with mild spices, or even roasted vegetables with wild herbs. It is recommended to serve it around 14 to 16°C, with possible decanting to aerate it.
Jean-Pierre Robinot delivers a living, author's wine here, which will age elegantly for a decade or more. A frank and unvarnished look at what Pineau d'Aunis can be when treated with respect and intuition.
UGM Qvevris White 2023,
With UGM Qvevris White 2023, Frédéric Cossard offers a captivating natural white, made from a unique blend of Grenache Blanc, Muscat, and Ugni Blanc. Grown at the foot of Mont Ventoux on clay-limestone soils, these organic grapes are then vinified in Burgundy according to the winemaker's exacting principles.
Vinification in qvevri for a vibrant and expressive white
This wine is made with a no additives approach, with total respect for the fruit and the terroir. After a direct press, it is aged in buried amphorae (qvevris), an ancestral method which promotes gentle oxygenation and preserves a great aromatic purity. This unusual vinification process gives the wine a subtle balance between tension and roundness, with a texture that is both silky and invigorating.
An aromatic and indulgent white
The nose immediately seduces with its expressive notes of ripe white fruits, enhanced by a delicate floral touch. On the palate, the attack is gourmet and ample, carried by a beautiful liveliness which prolongs the tasting with a fresh and persistent finish. The combination of the natural acidity of Muscat and the elegance of Grenache Blanc creates a harmonious and luminous wine, perfect for awakening the taste buds.
Food Pairings and Aging Potential
Served between 8 and 10°C, UGM Qvevris White 2023 pairs wonderfully with cooked fish, roasted poultry or white meats. Ideal to drink today on its freshness, it can also be kept for 5 to 10 years, evolving towards more complex and textured notes. A white with character, natural and vibrant, which will surprise lovers of lively wines.
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.
Côtillon des dames White 2022
Côtillon des Dames is a dry white wine from Jean-Yves Péron, organic and natural, from Savoie. In Vin de France, it is one of this winemaker's flagship vintages, made from several grape varieties in order to precisely control the evolution of the juice for each vintage and balance the wine according to each variety.
Vinification
Jean-Yves Péron's Côtillon des Dames is made with a majority of Jacquère, harvested at peak maturity, with Altesse and Roussanne as complementary grape varieties. All these vines grow on different terroirs: schist and limestone, limestone scree in Fréterive, mica schist in Albertville. The grapes are vinified separately and blended approximately two months before bottling. Depending on the variety, the maceration will be carbonic or not and of different durations. The average punching down is two weeks to two months. The aging is one year in 300-liter barrels.
Tasting
Great finesse characterizes Côtillon des Dames, a wine of great aromatic complexity, elegant and fruity, with a superb length on the palate. The winemaker has done everything to preserve the aroma and typicity of the Jacquère grape variety and the length and maturity of the Altesse-Roussanne duo.

Pink Pong Rosé 2022,
Jean-Marc Dreyer
Pink Pong by Jean-Marc Dreyer is an Alsatian rosé wine with organic maceration (AB label), biodynamic, and natural, without added sulfites, made from a blend of three grape varieties in equal parts: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Auxerrois. Until now, it only contained Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, but this year, Pinot Noir was predominant, and Pinot Gris was added to restore the balance and drinkability of this rosé.
Vinification
The vinification of Pink Pong is modeled on this winemaker's Origin cuvées. In this blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Auxerrois grown biodynamically, the former gives it a bright red color. The grapes are macerated for around ten days in whole bunches. The wine is aged in foudres and demi-muids for eleven months. Biodynamic method, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or cellar.
Tasting
Sweet notes of cherry, a slight astringency of cranberry, rhubarb, wild strawberry, a herbaceous note, and a hint of white pepper. Jean-Marc Dreyer doesn't always blend grape varieties, but when he does, we take off our hats: through a fine and dense framework, beautiful notes of red fruits and spices emerge. A wine for a special occasion, a thirst-quenching wine too, Pink Pong has it all: dryness, acidity, freshness, structure... As for food and wine pairings, you are spoiled for choice, this wine with its strong character goes well with anything that is eaten: red meats, grilled meats, cured beef (cecina) and pata negra ham, Gascon black pork ham too, charcuterie... Serve it very cold.
Learn more about Jean-Marc Dreyer
Jean-Marc Dreyer, biodynamic and natural Alsace winemaker (AB organic certification label), succeeds several generations of his family at the Dreyer & Fils estate, created in 1830 between Obernai and Molsheim. Upon taking over the estate, he immediately opted for biodynamics. In 2009, upon returning from a pilgrimage to Compostela, he decided never to add sulfur to any wine again. Having made this decision, he asserted his style around skin maceration, accentuated, chiseled, bringing out the soul of Alsatian grape varieties. Jean-Marc also works with direct pressing and often with single varietals. He also produces Pinot Noir reds of surprising depth.
Maceration and Direct Press
Jean-Marc Dreyer's wines are characterized by whole-bunch maceration (but you should also taste his direct-press whites). "Maceration in Alsace," he says, "is an ancestral tradition! In the past, we worked by hand and let the grapes macerate before sending the marc to the press." Gentle oxidation is also a particular characteristic of his wines, generally vinified without topping up. Jean-Marc is best known for his "Origin" series, a finely macerated expression of Alsace grape varieties, but we invite you to discover his other wines.

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 for a while as a wine broker 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.
In 2006, he created his own wine trading house and bought 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 vintages. The exercise is not limited to Burgundy, as 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 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 coveted wines, which sometimes require waiting.

Learn more about Domaine Bois-Moisset
In the heart of France's oldest vineyard—Gaillac, in the Tarn region—Sylvie Ledran, Philippe Maffre, and their son Hippolyte oversee their Bois-Moisset estate, a wine-growing property associated with mixed crop and livestock farming, all organic. Gaillac is famous for its many ancient indigenous grape varieties, and its wine-growing heritage is uniquely rich.
Cows and Vines
Domaine Bois-Moisset is also home to a herd of old local breed cows, and guest rooms are available during the summer months. It is in this small rural paradise that natural wines typical of their origin and their terroir are born, on fifteen hectares of boulbènes, gravelly and sandy-loam soils carried by the Tarn for thousands of years.
Native grape varieties
The grape varieties are dominated by Syrah and Duras, but the wines of the Bois-Moisset estate reflect the ampelographic richness of the Gaillac region (braucol, prunelart, loin-de-l’œil, mauzac, braucol, ondenc, etc.). The red wines are crisply fruity, concentrated but with smooth and delicate tannins, the whites have character and the pet’ nat’ are particularly tasty.
Vino Rosato Rosé 2021
Corva Gialla
Here is Vino Rosato, a beautiful Italian wine from the Lazio region whose pretty light pink color heralds pleasant floral notes on the nose and palate: rose, red fruits, citrus, acidity, and a touch of bitterness on the finish, reminiscent of grapefruit peel, which gives it a lot of charm. It is a blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese grapes. The Montepulciano harvest macerates for 48 hours on the skins before being pressed, while the Sangiovese is pressed directly at the entrance to the winery. The musts are then fermented together in fiberglass vats where they are further refined until bottling in March.

The Azienda Corva Gialla ("yellow crow") is a winery in Lazio, Italy, located on the edge of Umbria in the Alta Tuscia Viterbese. A volcanic region considered one of the most beautiful in Italy and characterized by its calanches, high tuff rock formations delimiting deep valleys carved by numerous rivers and torrents. Corva Gialla is located in Lubriano, opposite Cività di Bagnoregio. Alta Tuscia is proving to be a breeding ground for young winemaking talents dedicated to nature, who are reclaiming these historically neglected lands. Founded in 2017, the estate comprises four hectares cultivated by Beatrice Arweiler, originally from another wine-growing region, between the Rhine and the Moselle. The new owner has also planted an olive grove (Frantoio and Leccino varieties) and converted the estate into a mixed crop-livestock system. The vines were planted with the help of Gian Marco Antonuzzi of the Le Coste estate. The friable volcanic soil lends itself beautifully to viticulture and the planting of grape varieties such as Grechetto d'Umbria, Trebbiano, Vermentino, Sangiovese, and Ciliegiolo. The estate's wines are quintessentially Italian, meaning they are crafted primarily for enjoyment. They are straightforward, deep, and easy to drink, expressing the strong minerality of their soils.
