We are Young Rouge Beaujolais Nouveau 2025,
Domaine de la Sorbiere
We Are Young 2025 is a declaration of intent. More than just a Beaujolais Nouveau, it's a vision of young wine, free, without embellishment or artifice. This vintage from Domaine de la Sorbière, in granite Beaujolais, pays homage to the vitality of Gamay, the region's emblematic grape variety, worked here in a completely natural spirit.
The grapes come from granitic soils which give the wine a very clear mineral freshness. The winemaking is as simple as it is sincere: 5-day semi-carbonic maceration, spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts, and an ultra-short aging of 4 days in stainless steel tanks to capture the instant of the fruit. No superfluous oenological intervention, no exogenous yeasts or chemical inputs: here, everything is natural, alive, and respectful of both the grape and its terroir.
The color is a very light red, grenadine-colored, almost translucent, evoking fermented fruit juice. The nose immediately charms with its notes of citrus, fresh cherry, and white flowers, a fine and spring-like aromatic palette. On the palate, the crunchiness of the fruit dominates, with a fluid, fresh, almost thirst-quenching texture, without lacking structure. The moderate alcohol content (12%) contributes to this impression of gourmet lightness.
Perfect as an apéritif, We Are Young 2025 pairs wonderfully with a platter of fine cold cuts, soft cheeses or simple and generous cuisine. Serve slightly chilled (16-18°C) and drink without delay, although its aging potential of 2 to 5 years will surprise the curious.
A numbered vintage, full of sincerity and zest, to reconcile all enthusiasts with the original spirit of Beaujolais Nouveau: that of celebration, sharing, and wine that does good.
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. On the palate, a wave of freshness, taut and tangy, almost crystalline, accompanies a lovely fruity depth. The finish is clean, long, and mouthwatering.
Suitable for large gatherings as well as for aperitifs
This characterful white wine pairs equally well with shellfish, cooked fish, or mushrooms, as with white meats or soft cheeses. Served chilled, it reveals its full gastronomic potential and can be aged for 5 to 10 years without any problem.
Je t'aime moi non plus Sparkling Rosé 2024,
A natural sparkling wine that plays with emotions, "Je t'aime moi non plus" is a sparkling rosé by La Tribu Alonso, designed as a tribute to the sensuality and spontaneity of Gamay. Coming from a sunny granite terroir in Beaujolais, this festive and delicately fruity wine is produced using the ancestral method, offering a fine and delicious bubble, both fresh and velvety.
A seductive and airy Pet' Nat’
Made from three Gamay varieties (Vialla, Troye and Gascon), this wine seduces with its finesse and low alcohol content (8.5%), making it a perfect ally for moments of sharing without heaviness. The ancestral method, which consists of bottling the juice during fermentation, gives it a natural effervescence and a beautiful liveliness on the palate.
A delicate and captivating bouquet
Upon opening, the nose reveals a delicious blend of fresh raspberry, bright citrus fruits and juicy pear, with a slightly floral touch. On the palate, the velvety texture envelops the palate while retaining a refreshing acidity that perfectly balances its fruity generosity.
An ideal companion for an aperitif
With its fine bubbles and vibrant freshness, "Je t’aime moi non plus" is the perfect companion for convivial moments. Served between 10 and 12°C, it can be enjoyed as an aperitif, but also pairs wonderfully with light dishes such as tapas, seafood, or a strawberry and basil salad. Enjoy now or keep for up to 5 years to explore its evolution.
Les Larmes des Roses Red 2023
Les Larmes des roses is an organic and natural red wine made from 100% Pinot (several varieties), with no added sulfites, produced by Cyril Alonso in Marchampt, in the Beaujolais Vert terroir. Classified as a Vin de France, it was previously called "Les Larmes des Damas" in homage to Henry Frédéric Roch, of the Prieuré-Roch estate in Côte-d'Or, who vinified the ancient Pinot de Damas variety. From Damascus to roses, there is only one step.
Vinification
The vines grow on a 2-are plot, on gray granite soils with wild grass. They are Pinot of various varieties (Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Plant Fin or Pinot Fin, Pinot Modri from Slovenia) pruned in goblet form, aged from four to thirty years and cultivated without plowing, in organic farming and agroforestry. Fermentation is done by indigenous yeasts without starter culture. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in barrels of several wines (seven for this vintage) for 36 months. Two barrels (600 bottles) were produced. No chemical inputs were added to the vineyard or the cellar.
Tasting
This wine, which inaugurates its first vintage, is more full-bodied, less clear than Le Retour des Hirondelles, from the same estate. Beautiful ruby, red-pink color. Having aged for a long time in barrels, it is complex, patinated, polished. Notes of leather, amber, vanilla orchid. This haute couture wine will pair well with select foods: high-end grilled or roast beef, charcuterie and cured meats, Iberian bellota ham, comforting stews, for example a good cassoulet.
Learn more about Tribu Alonso
This tribal name refers to Cyril Alonso, winemaker, his wife, a naturopath, and their family. They take care, using organic farming, of a conservatory of traditional grape varieties from the Rhône-Alpes region located in Marchampt (Rhône), in the heart of Beaujolais Vert. This two-and-a-half-hectare ampelothèque, which existed since 1952, then had forty grape varieties. It currently contains one hundred and forty. This unique location gives Tribu Alonso wines their particular style. Instead of being single-varietal microcuvées, they are quite the opposite: wines by grape family, either a Chardonnay containing all the Chardonnays of the house or a multi-Gamay Gamay.
A biotope classified in 2008
The estate enjoys a unique ecological location: the house and the vineyard are surrounded by intact forests, on the steep terrain of northern Beaujolais. Three rivers cross it, and the vines, close to the bedrock, capture all the minerality of the soil. Organic farming is practiced and the work, in the vineyard as well as in the cellar, is entirely manual, without the use of any chemical additives or sulfites in the vinification.
The wines
Complantation cuvées (and for good reason), the wines of Tribu Alonso embrace all the complexity of their grape varieties and the viticultural history of Beaujolais. These are carefully crafted wines, fermented and aged to the sound of Tibetan bowls, whose alpha waves are beneficial to the liquids. The fermentation periods are short to preserve the freshness and fruit, as well as the signature of the soil and grape varieties.
Ambre Dissolved Red 2023
La Tribu Alonso
Ambre Dissolved is an organic and natural red wine without added sulfites, made in Beaujolais by Cyril Alonso. It is a 100% Gamay grape made from several varieties of this grape and classified as a Vin de France. Its name alludes to the soft clocks painted by Salvador Dalí in his painting Persistence of Memory. According to Dalí, purple is the most harmonious of colors: it is also the color of Ambre Dissolved. A discreet allusion to the surrealist painter appears on the label.
Vinification
The Gamays from which Ambre Dissolve is made, grown organically, grow on a 3-are plot on granite soil with wild grass, in agroforestry and without plowing. Pruned in goblet form, they are four varieties of Gamay teinturiers (i.e., Gamays with black skin and red juice, giving a great density of color to the wine): Gamay de Bouze, Gamay de Troye, Gamay de Fréaux and Gamay de Chaudenay. Harvested by hand, the grapes undergo a five-day semicarbonic maceration, without a starter culture, and ferment with indigenous yeasts. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations follow one another in fiberglass vats. No additives are added, no sulfites at bottling.
Tasting
Despite a short vatting period, Ambre Dissolved is a very sanguine, mineral, ferrous, slightly earthy and very rustic wine. The color is intense, the nose is spicy, the palate offers a beautiful texture. A very pure, balanced wine, offering a beautiful balance between fruit and minerality. To be paired imperatively with red meats: roasted, grilled, pan-fried, braised or cured. It is a beef wine. It will also appreciate Lyonnaise charcuterie and all regional dishes.

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.
Les Larmes du Soleil Red 2020
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
Born in the heart of Beaujolais, but labeled a Vin de France, "Les Larmes de Damas 2020" is a singular Pinot Noir, with understated charm and a fiercely independent character. Cultivated off the beaten path, this wine draws its finesse and structure from the vibrant soils of the Rhône Valley, where the terroir, though not defined by an appellation, speaks with genuine sincerity. Here, the soils express themselves without artifice, offering Pinot Noir a delicate canvas for expression, full of tension and subtlety.
Cultivation methods
Tribu Alonso is above all a philosophy of respect and patience. Without a label, but with a deep commitment to life, the estate cultivates its vines with artisanal care, far removed from industrial standards. The vinification of this cuvée reflects this: a "Jura-style maceration" where half juice and half stems, without the stalks, are left to infuse for three months. A gentle and slow method, like a whisper addressed to the fruit, which emerges pure, vibrant, and delicately peppery.
Tasting & pairings
In the glass, "Les Larmes de Damas" reveals itself with quiet modesty. Its pale red color hints at its delicate texture. The nose evokes faded rose, crushed morello cherry, and a subtle note of white pepper that tantalizes the senses. On the palate, the wine glides with elegance, carried by a crystalline freshness and a caressing suppleness. No pretense, just touching sincerity, a simple yet lingering emotion.
This delicate red wine calls for dishes of equal quality: light, subtle cuisine that doesn't seek to overpower. Ideal as an aperitif, with a platter of fine charcuterie, a beetroot carpaccio with herbs, or a mature soft cheese. "Les Larmes de Damas" also complements a moment of silence, a gentle conversation, or the soft light of late afternoon.
A free, meditative wine that reconciles fruit, time, and the hand of man in a discreet yet profound harmony.
Art Brut Red 2023,
La Tribu Alonso
A vibrant, hybrid, and bold red, born from the granite terroir of Beaujolais
The Art Brut 2023, produced by La Tribu Alonso, is an atypical and captivating cuvée.

With Tomoe Gozen Blanc 2023, La Tribu Alonso creates an inspired and profoundly original vintage, conceived as an homage to the first female samurai. Like this historical figure, the wine embodies finesse, power, and singularity. Made from a collection of 28 Chardonnays, this white wine reveals a rare complexity, shaped by a bold vision and an artisanal approach to natural wine.
The grapes are grown without any synthetic products, respecting the living balance of the vineyard. In the cellar, vinification relies solely on indigenous yeasts, without inputs or artificial additions, to allow the identity of the vintage and the terroir to fully express itself. The 16-month aging in Sauternes barrels adds an extra dimension to the wine, enriching its aromatic palette and texture.
In the glass, the golden, slightly hazy color indicates a living and unfiltered wine. The nose opens with great complexity, blending aromas of white flowers, honey, and undergrowth, enhanced by an elegant smoky touch. The influence of the barrels is subtly discernible, bringing depth and relief without masking the freshness of the fruit.
On the palate, the texture is full, silky, and structured. The wine unfolds an aromatic richness where floral and honeyed notes intertwine with woody and slightly toasted nuances. A beautiful tension balances the whole, offering a persistent finish that is both warm and refined.
Tomoe Gozen Blanc 2023 pairs perfectly with aged cheeses, whose complexity it highlights, but also with spicy dishes, thanks to its roundness and aromatic depth.
With this vintage, La Tribu Alonso confirms its free and inspired approach, giving birth to a unique natural wine, rich in history and emotion.
Non Ouillé White 2022
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
It is in the heart of Beaujolais that La Tribu Alonso has dared a bold departure, a joyful risk: producing an oxidative white wine, a rarity in this region more renowned for its fruity reds. For this cuvée, named Non Ouillé 2022, the Chardonnay grape lends itself gracefully to controlled oxidation, revealing an unexpected facet of its expression. Born from a terroir at the crossroads of influences, between the granite hills of Beaujolais and the more southerly breezes of the Rhône Valley, this wine embodies a true convergence of sensations. A first foray into this style for the estate—and a promising success.
Cultivation methods
The Tribu Alonso, as its name suggests, operates as a collective, with a vision of wine resolutely focused on people and the living world. Here, there are no labels, but a clear philosophy: to work as close to nature as possible, without artifice. The vines are cultivated without chemical inputs, respecting natural rhythms, and the winery becomes a place of gentle experimentation. For this cuvée, the choice not to top up the wine—that is, not to fill the barrels during aging—allows for slow oxidation, inspired by the wines of the Jura region. A way to explore new gustatory horizons, while showcasing the grape variety and the local terroir in a new light.
Tasting & pairings
From the very first whiff, Non Ouillé 2022 intrigues and seduces. One is immersed in a disconcerting yet captivating aromatic world: notes of anise, mild curry, and above all, that touch of nuttiness typical of oxidative whites, tickle the senses. On the palate, the texture is ample yet taut, with precise minerality and a beautiful freshness that perfectly balances the wine's buttery and saline character. A subtle interplay between unabashed rusticity and profound elegance.
This wine invites the unexpected at the table: perfect as an aperitif, with green olives, aged hard cheeses, or even a delicate Comté and caramelized onion tart. It also pairs beautifully with light, exotic cuisine, such as a vegetable curry or fish marinated in mild spices. This is a wine for the curious, for those who love new sensations, for those who enjoy venturing off the beaten path and discovering what Beaujolais can offer when it embraces other influences.
With Non Ouillé 2022, La Tribu Alonso has created a vintage of character, as free as it is precise, which redefines the contours of white wine in Beaujolais and invites us to broaden our perspective, glass in hand.
Yeti Rouge 2024
La Tribu Alonso
The 2024 Yeti cuvée is a wine as atypical as its name, born in Beaujolais under the passionate impetus of the collective La Tribu Alonso. This 100% Gamay, or rather, should we say "100% Gamay diversity," brings together no fewer than 31 different varieties of this grape: Gamay teinturier, white, rosé, old clones, forgotten plants... A mosaic of grapes that reflects the richness of life and the free spirit of its winemakers.
The grapes are grown on granitic soils, without synthetic products, following a completely natural approach, even without certification. After a 5-day semi-carbonic maceration in fiber tanks, fermentation occurs thanks to indigenous yeasts, without oenological input. The wine is then aged for 12 months in concrete eggs, which brings roundness, energy, and balance, without woody masking.
The result? A vibrant and juicy red wine, with a light and brilliant color. The nose reveals crisp red fruits, a herbaceous touch, some sweet spices, and a peppery hint. On the palate, it is fluid, digestible, with a beautiful texture that remains fresh and elegant. A smooth Gamay, but never simplistic.
Yeti can be enjoyed as an aperitif, with artisanal charcuterie, lightly spiced dishes, or even grilled white meats. It's a wine of immediate pleasure, which appeals to both the curious and enlightened lovers of lively natural wines, to be drunk young or within 5 years.
Ambre dissous Red 2020
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
Born in the vibrant Beaujolais region, La Tribu Alonso's 2020 Ambre Dissous is a distinctive red wine, a wine of character that breaks with established norms. While Gamay takes center stage, it is an uncommon Gamay, made from teinturier grapes – a rarity in the region. This bold choice results in a captivatingly deep color, almost cloudy like the ink of mystery, and already hints at a singular expression of the terroir.
The vineyard stretches across granite soils typical of Beaujolais, in an area where the influences of the nearby Rhône are felt, bringing darker, spicier notes and a welcome tension. It is a land of contrasts, between the freshness of the north and the generosity of the south, which La Tribu Alonso has managed to tame with rare sensitivity.
Cultivation methods
The Alonso Tribe is, above all, a philosophy. It's a return to the essentials, a work in symbiosis with nature, far removed from artifice. The vines are cultivated without chemical inputs, respecting living organisms, lunar cycles, and the energies of the land. Here, each bunch is hand-picked, in an almost ritualistic gesture, then vinified with minimal intervention. Fermentation occurs naturally, with indigenous yeasts taking the reins to best express the identity of the grape and its terroir.
This artisanal approach yields a free, vibrant, unadorned wine, where the grape variety can sing without a false note. Ambre Dissous is a reflection of nature embraced, sometimes wild, but always sincere.
Tasting & pairings
By the glass, Ambre Dissous 2020 immediately captivates with its deep, almost violet color, hinting at a wine with a strong character. The nose is a poem of spices: freshly ground black pepper, clove, with a delicate note of violet as a subtle reminder of Rhône influences. On the palate, the structure is assertive, the tannins present yet elegantly polished, offering a mouthfeel that is both firm and silky.
This wine is not meant to flatter; it challenges, questions, and invites contemplation. It can be enjoyed as an aperitif, to awaken the taste buds, or at the table, alongside a generous dish: a matured rib of beef, a lamb tagine with prunes, or even a wild mushroom risotto.
Ambre Dissous is a wine for sharing, but also for meditation. A bottle that tells a story, that of a marginalized grape variety, a reinvented terroir, and a tribe that, far from the beaten track, forges its own path with heart and conviction.
Ceci n'est pas un vin White 2023
Ceci n'est pas un vin is still a wine, white, dry, organic, and natural, with no added sulfites. Made in Beaujolais by Cyril of La Tribu Alonso, it is classified as a Vin de France. It is 100% Chardonnay, but there are twenty-eight different varieties in the bottle. Just as the red wine Ambre dissolve is inspired by Salvador Dalí, this one obviously alludes to Henri Magritte (see the label).
Vinification
The collection of twenty-eight Chardonnays from the ampelothèque, from which Ceci n’est pas un vin is made, is planted on a half-hectare plot on granite, with wild grass, agroforestry and no tillage. The vines, pruned in the goblet style, are between four and thirty years old. There are Chardonnays here of all tastes and colors (white, pink, muscaté, etc.), and it seems that the multiplicity of grape varieties gives a whole new face to this Chardonnay, unfortunately a little overused in the world of viticulture. "We are moving away from the boring Chardonnay," says Cyril. The manual harvest goes into direct pressing and, after a 48-hour settling process, only sees from the vat to its bottling. Alcoholic fermentation without starter culture using indigenous yeasts, malolactic fermentation also in fiberglass vats. Zero chemical inputs, in the vineyard and in the cellar, and zero added sulfites.
Tasting
Surprisingly, Ceci n’est pas un vin: the opposite of classic Chardonnay, it has great qualities of resistance. Solid, fine and balanced. A dry white wine with no added sulfites that has a very long shelf life once opened, it is rare and unique. It can last, recorked, for a whole week. On the nose and palate, it is a marvel of perfume and aroma, as if it offered the quintessence of Chardonnay through all its varieties. Salty, iodized, aromatic and floral, it evokes peach or apricot blossom, white peach, and its acidity-alcohol balance will allow it to be kept between 5 and 7 years. It can be drunk whenever you want, with oysters, shellfish, raw or smoked fish, tapas, fine starters and any elegant and refined cuisine.

From a collection of 31 plots planted on a spectacular south-facing hillside with a 42% slope, this wine draws its energy from a demanding, light-bathed terroir.
The vines are cultivated without any synthetic products, in an approach that respects natural balances. In the cellar, the philosophy remains the same, without inputs or artifices, with spontaneous fermentations thanks to indigenous yeasts.

The 15-month aging on lees structures the wine while maintaining its freshness.

On the palate, the wine seduces with its lightness and tension. The attack is supple, then gives way to a fine, floral, and ethereal texture. The balance between freshness and delicacy results in a digestible, precise, and particularly elegant wine, with a lively and persistent finish.
Retour des Hirondelles Rouge 2024 pairs ideally with artisanal charcuterie, grilled meats, or white meats. It also perfectly accompanies convivial meals where the simplicity of the products highlights the purity of the wine.

True to its artisanal approach, the estate delivers a sincere natural wine here, made from vines cultivated without synthetic products and vinified without additives, in total respect for all living things.
This collection of hybrid grape varieties, still too often overlooked, allows for a different interpretation of the terroir and opens up new gustatory perspectives. After fermentation with indigenous yeasts, the wine benefits from 12 months of aging on lees, bringing texture, complexity, and beautiful aromatic depth.
In the glass, the color reveals itself in a pale hue with slightly hazy reflections, a sign of an unfiltered wine. The nose expresses itself with finesse, revealing aromas of white flowers, fresh pear, and a delicate herbaceous touch that evokes nature in its purest form.

Fermentation relies exclusively on indigenous yeasts, and interventions are kept to a strict minimum to preserve the purest expression of the grape and the vintage.
In the glass, the color is a deep red with slightly evolved reflections, announcing a wine with a strong personality. The nose is rich and generous, marked by notes of caramel, dried fruits, and blond tobacco, almost evoking the world of oxidative wines or old vintages. This aromatic complexity immediately invites contemplation.
On the palate, the attack surprises with its syrupy, ample, and caressing texture. The wine unfurls a round, warm body, where flavors of candied fruit and sweet spices linger for a long time. The balance plays between sweetness and intensity, offering an experience that is both gourmet and structured, without heaviness.
Antique Rouge 2023 is particularly well suited for shared moments. It will uniquely accompany an aperitif, especially with aged cheeses or lightly spiced dishes. It will also enhance dishes with oriental flavors or bold cuisines, thanks to its enveloping roundness.
With this cuvée, La Tribu Alonso offers an atypical, sincere, and deeply expressive natural wine that will appeal to enthusiasts seeking new sensations.
With Art Brut Rouge 2024, La Tribu Alonso creates a unique and profoundly lively cuvée, a true manifesto of uncompromising natural wine. Crafted from a biocentric harmony of 140 co-fermented grape varieties, this wine is as intriguing as it is captivating, embodying a free and collective vision of wine, faithful to the estate's artisanal spirit.
The grapes, grown on granitic soils, draw out a subtle minerality that contributes to the wine's tension. Cultivated without synthetic products in the vineyard, the work fully respects natural balances. In the cellar, vinification is done without artifice, using only indigenous yeasts, and a gentle seven-day infusion in open vats, followed by a short maceration that preserves the fruit's brilliance and the aromas' finesse.
Upon tasting, the wine reveals a luminous red color with slightly hazy reflections, a hallmark of low-intervention wines. The nose opens with an expressive aromatic palette combining fresh citrus, crisp red berries, and a delicate, almost wild herbaceous touch. On the palate, the attack is supple and juicy, giving way to a round, floral, and surprisingly complex texture. The balance between freshness and depth results in a digestible, vibrant, and evolving wine.
This reinterpreted Gamay is suitable for simple pairings as well as more daring combinations. It will perfectly accompany seasonal cuisine, grilled vegetables, roasted poultry, or vegetarian dishes with fresh herbs.
Art Brut Rouge 2024 is an invitation to explore wine differently, in all its spontaneity and raw energy.
