Coince ta bulle 2023 sparkling rosé
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
In the heart of the Blaye-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation, on the right bank of the Gironde estuary, flourish the vines of Château Frédignac, a family estate driven by the sincere commitment of Vignobles L'Amouller. It is here, on sunny and breezy slopes, that Merlot finds its ideal expression. This emblematic Bordeaux variety, usually vinified as a red wine, reveals itself here in an unexpected and seductive light: as a naturally sparkling rosé. The temperate climate and clay-limestone soils of the vineyard lend the "Coince ta bulle" cuvée a beautiful freshness, a natural vivacity, and a crisp fruitiness that evokes the pure pleasure of the moment.
Cultivation methods
True to a peasant philosophy that respects all living things, the estate is managed using certified organic farming methods, bearing the AB and Nature & Progrès labels. Here, the vines are nurtured without synthetic inputs, in a careful balance between soil, plant, and human intervention. Biodiversity is encouraged, treatments are gentle and measured, and every intervention is carried out with the aim of preserving the soil's identity and the purity of the fruit. This approach naturally extends to the cellar, where the "Coince ta bulle" cuvée is crafted using the ancestral method: a single fermentation, without the addition of yeasts or sulfites, resulting in a brut sparkling wine that is spontaneous and vibrant. A free wine, reflecting the spirit of those who make it.
Tasting & pairings
"Coince ta bulle" 2023 is an invitation to lightness, freshness, and the simple joy of a shared moment. Its pale pink, delicately cloudy color heralds a vibrant nose of small red fruits—fresh strawberry, tangy raspberry—mingled with a lively touch of pink grapefruit. On the palate, the bubbles are fine and joyful, with a crisp and thirst-quenching attack. The fruit expresses itself naturally, in a perfect balance between natural sweetness and saline tension.
Ideal for relaxed moments, this naturally sparkling rosé is the perfect accompaniment to a summer aperitif, a platter of grilled vegetables, sushi, or marinated fish. It also works wonders at a barbecue with friends, where its light and fruity character refreshes the palate and sparks conversation. A wine for pure enjoyment, sincere and unpretentious, proving that natural wines can also be festive.

La Syrah de la Pinède 2022 from Fond Cyprès is a true ode to nature and the terroir of Languedoc-Roussillon. Produced on a north-facing plot surrounded by a pine forest, this cuvée embodies a perfect balance between freshness and concentration. The rich, fresh clay-limestone soils allow the 15-year-old Syrah vines to develop a beautiful maturity until the end of September, giving the wine an elegant structure and expressive aromas.
Vinification and Aging: Respect for the Terroir
The grapes are harvested by hand, then carefully destemmed before a gentle three-week maceration. Traditional vinification respects the grapes, using indigenous yeasts and without the addition of additives or filtration, thus highlighting the authenticity of this natural wine. The wine is aged in 42 hl wooden vats for 10 months, preserving the wine's memory and allowing it to develop a subtle depth and complexity.
Tasting: An Elegant and Expressive Syrah
On the nose, La Syrah de la Pinède reveals captivating aromas of red fruits and black olives, distinctive signs of its Mediterranean terroir. On the palate, we find this same freshness, due to the northern exposure of the vine, combined with a beautiful concentration reminiscent of the generosity of the southern sun. Its silky texture and fine tannins offer a persistent and balanced length on the palate.
Food and Wine Pairing: Ideal Companion to Roast Meats
This red wine pairs wonderfully with roast meats, revealing all its aromatic richness and delicate structure. Serve it between 14 and 16 degrees, and don't hesitate to decant it to release all its aromatic complexity. With an aging potential of more than 10 years, this wine will evolve magnificently in the cellar.
Respect for the Environment: An Organic Commitment
Certified organic farming (Eurofeuille), La Syrah de la Pinède 2022 embodies Fond Cyprès' commitment to environmentally friendly viticulture. Without synthetic products or industrial yeasts, this wine is the pure expression of its terroir.
Les Œillets Amphore White 2022
Les Œillets Amphore is a dry macerated white wine produced in Savoie by Jean-Yves Péron. Organic, biodynamic, and natural, it is a 100% Jacquère white, with no additives or added sulfites, classified as a Vin de France.
Vinification
Les Œillets comes from the same terroir as La Petite Robe (the clay-limestone soils of the lieu-dit Les Marches, at the foot of Mont Granier), but it is harvested later to achieve greater phenolic maturity and a higher tannin concentration. Carbonic maceration for four or five days is followed by a month of punching down in vats. At least one year of aging in terracotta amphorae.
Tasting
With a beautiful minerality and a tension polished by the time spent in terracotta, Les Œillets Amphore by Jean-Yves Péron is an atypical white, with powerful aromatic notes without any trace of wood. Lots of fruit and candied citrus. Les Œillets has chewiness, texture, a tannic mouthfeel and a note of controlled oxidation. The tension is strong, balanced by a note of apricot. You will pair him with all your best dishes.
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 the 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 surfaces, his mountain vines in micro-plots, worked by hand, 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.
Italian-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 in Northern Italy: this is the I Vicini series, which allows him to diversify the terroirs and deepen his winemaking and aging experiences.
La Diablesse White 2020
La Diablesse is an organic (Ecocert) and natural dry white wine made by Renaud Guettier of La Grapperie from old Chenin Blanc vines. Classified as a Vin de France, it comes from the Coteaux du Loir appellation region.
Vinification
La Diablesse is a pure Chenin Blanc from vines planted in 1935 on flint-clay soils. The grapes are pressed directly at low pressure and then transferred by gravity before undergoing fermentation in barrels using indigenous yeasts.
Tasting
The nose of La Diablesse surprises with notes of almonds, followed on the palate by white fruits (pear, reinette apple), citrus fruits and a beautiful acidic finish. Very mineral, black pepper, smoke, thyme and earthy notes. The acidity is considerable, marked by a slight oxidative touch. This wine will go well with cooked fish, oysters and all seafood. Also enjoy it with smoked fish and cheese.
Learn more about Renaud Guettier and La Grapperie
In the Coteaux du Loir appellation, La Grapperie is the name of the estate of Renaud Guettier, who can be described as a master of Chenin, but also of Pineau d'Aunis, which is one of the oldest grape varieties in the Loire Valley.
The estate
Renaud's 60 hectares of hillside vines are protected from the north winds by the Bercé forest. Depending on the altitude, the terroirs are predominantly clay, flint or sand. The grape varieties are the two traditionally authorized in the appellation: Chenin for the whites and Pineau d'Aunis for 90% of the reds, the rest consisting of a few ares of Côt, Gamay and Grolleau. Some vines are more than a hundred years old.
In the vineyard and the winery
The entire estate is cultivated organically. The soils are worked and all viticultural interventions are manual, including the harvest, carried out at full maturity, which is reflected in the fullness and smoothness of the wines. For the reds, the Pineau d'Aunis is partially destemmed (depending on the plot) and the macerations are quite long, three to four weeks, with punching down, to promote aging potential. The wines are aged in barrels for between twelve and twenty-four months, then racked, blended and bottled without filtration. For the whites, the Chenins are pressed directly at low pressure then put into barrels with complete malolactic fermentation, for at least eighteen months, malolactic included, and sometimes up to thirty-six months.
La Pinya White 2021
The color is a very pale blond, like a linden infusion, slightly cloudy; La Pinya is a fresh, mineral, and aromatic dry white wine, lively and delicate, with a possible sparkle upon opening. In Belly Wine Experiment, there is Experiment, or experimentation. It's a principle that this small organic and natural wine merchant estate strives to demonstrate vintage after vintage. La Pinya, labeled with a pine cone, is a blend of equal parts of two indigenous Catalan grape varieties: Xarel lo and Macabeu from Pla del Penedès, harvested on clay-limestone soils. This blend is quite common in Catalonia, Claire Sage's native country. For this vintage, the Macabeu is worked directly from the press, then blended with crushed Xarel·lo. The whole thing is macerated for a week. This wine is organically grown and has received no chemical additives or sulfites, in the vineyard or in the cellar. Note that the natural formation of tartar may cause a slight foam when the bottle is opened. La Pinya should be stored upright and drunk chilled.

Founded and run by Claire Sage and Aimé Duveau, located in Chanteuges (Haute-Loire), Belly Wine Experiment is as much an experiment as a winemaking business. The creative duo has a lot to offer: Claire is the sister of Daniel Sage, a fan of underwater wine aging but above all an importer of Catalan wines. Hence the presence of Catalan grape varieties in Belly Wine Experiment's blends, alongside Burgundy, Auvergne, and Jura grape varieties, readily found in the same bottle. Aimé is the son of Manu Duveau, a poet-winemaker from Auvergne, a former stonemason, and a great winemaker of local Gamays at his Domaine de l'Égrappille. The uniqueness of Belly Wine Experiment is the exoticism (in the literal sense) of the blends, with Xarel lo from Catalonia, for example, being able to sit alongside Gamay from Puy-de-Dôme with the utmost naturalness. The wines are made using semicarbonic maceration, without the addition of chemical additives or excessive manipulation in the cellar. The house is also known for its very high-quality, vinous perries.
The One Beer 2021,
Cyclic Beer Farm
Animal, funky, racy, full of character, with a spicy touch and a clean, precise bitter finish, The One is a direct reference to James Brown: not only to his song "She's The One" but also to his concept of "The One": the absolute beat, the rhythmic energy capable of giving the ideal funky coloring to his music. Exactly as brett (wild yeasts) give Cyclic Beer Farm beers in general and this one in particular their desired funky note. The One was the first funky beer made by Cyclic, in 2016, and it is their only saison-style beer not aged in barrels. Instead of aging it in wood, as is the case with most of their funky saisons, they brew, ferment, and flavor in stainless steel tanks to promote the pure expression of the yeasts. The One is 5.8% ABV.

Cyclic Beer Farm is a duo of Barcelona friends, Alberto and Joshua. Based in the Catalan capital, they have two sides to their business: beer (Cyclic Beer) and wine (Cyclic Wine). The beers, inspired by the Belgian model, are available in surprising and colorful ranges where expertly measured yeast cocktails and house brews combine with varied macerations of fruits, vegetables, herbs and grape marc from traditional Catalan varieties, the latter taken after the fermentation of their wines - because the second part is the wine, made exclusively from native Catalan grape varieties. Packaged in 75 cl bottles so that everyone has something to satisfy their thirst, the beers play between classicism and flights of inspiration, in a contrasting and creative way, Catalan style, without forgetting to dare the wine beer, of course. Based on classic principles and a Belgian fermentation model, the two brewers-winemakers Joshua and Alberto play with ingredients, aromas, and macerations, between cereals, fruits, vegetables, and grape skins from Catalan grape varieties, to achieve flavors reminiscent of the Obni (unidentified drinkable object). Whether they assert themselves through balance or a certain controlled dissonance, these beers will never leave you indifferent and will reveal their full potential during the summer heat, served well chilled (like their creators).
Es d'aqui Paloma Red 2020,
Notes of strawberry, plenty of acidity, and a delicious flavor. Paloma is a light, thirst-quenching red, claret, almost a rosé. The grapes all come from Adissan, in the Hérault region: Clairette, Colombard on a strip of basalt soil, and Grenache on lacustrine limestone. The harvest macerates whole bunches for two weeks in stainless steel vats. Half of the wine is aged in 500-liter barrels and the other half 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). 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 are 14 degrees. " 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 place, 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.
Es d'aqui Conciliabule Rosé Pétillant 2020
Jean Louis Pinto
A joyful, lively, fruity, and festive wine that will be wonderful as an aperitif. Conciliabule is a beautiful sparkling natural rosé made from Pinot Noir from Castelreng, grown on the clay-limestone terroirs around Limoux. The harvest undergoes direct pressing followed by four months of aging on slats and a free-flowing disgorgement.

Nuria Montanega-Parellada White 2017
In Sitges, in Penedès (Catalonia), in the heart of the Garraf Natural Park, Manel Avinyo and his brother Joan took over the family estate, which Manel renamed Clos Lentiscus. Even though Barcelona is only a half-hour drive away, the beauty of the landscape is striking and the immersion in nature is total: Mediterranean forests rub shoulders with Catalan scrubland (thyme, rosemary, rockrose, and the mastic tree, which gave its name to the estate, etc.). The Penedès region also has a long winemaking history. Nestled in its gentle hills is Clos Lentiscus, in the Penedés appellation, on twenty hectares of sandy and clay-limestone soils facing due south at an altitude of 225 meters. According to historical documents, the family of Manel and Joan Avinyo has been established there since at least the 14th century. For a long time, the grapes were sold to local cooperatives, but since the two brothers took over the estate, organic and biodynamic farming has replaced conventional practices, the entire harvest goes into the house vintages, and organic and biodynamic practices have allowed this beautiful property to reconnect with its former prestige: in the 19th century, its wines were sold in France and as far away as the Americas. Very quickly, Manel received a nickname: The Bubbleman, a tribute to his talent for vinifying cavas, these sparkling whites characteristic of the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, from native varieties for which Catalonia holds the secret: sumoll, ull de llebre, xarel·lo, malvasia of Sitges, cartoixà vermell, cariñena (carignan), accompanied by tempranillo and muscat of Alexandria. The vines are old, sometimes centuries old. No synthetic additives are used in the vineyard, and operations such as planting, pruning, de-budding and harvesting are dictated by the lunar phases. Pollination is facilitated by the presence of beehives; sheep contribute to fertilization and control of the plant cover. Ringo, the white horse, is responsible for working the soil.
Purity, elegance and a crisp minerality due to limestone characterize the productions of Clos Lentiscus. The note of controlled oxidation, when it is felt, does not dominate the tasting and the wines are never deviant. Cavas are known for being exuberant, but those of Clos Lentiscus never have more than two grams of residual sugar per liter. The estate also produces still wines, red, white and rosé.
Núria is the name of Manel's daughter, who assisted her father in the making of this beautiful wine made from Montanega, a variant of the native Parellada grape variety. Lightly disgorged, made using the ancestral method (cava), this surprising wine presents notes of fresh bread and brioche, green tea and apple. Fresh and dry at the same time, it is disconcertingly complex: alive and moving in the glass, we keep coming back to it.

Núria is the name of Manel's daughter, who assisted her father in the creation of this beautiful aperitif wine that will go wonderfully with all Mediterranean cuisines, with the added pleasure and conviviality that the magnum format allows. 100% Muscat of Alexandria, a sweet, large-berry grape, this is a fresh and aromatic sparkling white wine from direct pressing. The first fermentation using indigenous yeasts takes place in 55-liter demijohns and the second fermentation takes place in bottles. Twenty-four months of aging on fine lees and manual disgorgement.
Magnum Tonton Grolleau Red 2019
As its name suggests, this is a 100% Grolleau from old vines (eighty years old) growing on schist soils. The plots once belonged to the Domaine des Sablonnettes (Rablay-sur-Layon). The harvest macerates for three weeks in whole bunches. Beautifully fruity, with the characteristic plum nuance of the grape variety, spicy, and with a supple and light texture.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
El Aqueronte Red 2019
El Aqueronte refers to Acheron, the river of the underworld in Greek mythology. We therefore expect base notes firmly rooted in the soil and black fruits, and they are there: a beautiful dark garnet color, a smoky and fruity nose (black cherry), peony, and cocoa, and a velvety, cherry-peppery texture on the palate, a harmony between minerality and fruit. Made from 100% Mencia grapes (from the Trousseau), unfiltered and unsulfured, this wine comes from seventy to ninety-year-old vines grown in the north of Bierzo on a homogeneous plot with clay-limestone soils rich in quartz, at an altitude of 555 meters. The grapes macerate for three to four days in old, unsealed chestnut vats; the wines are aged in French oak barrels for eleven months. Decanting is recommended.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Alberto Lopez Calvo Tinto Cosecha Red 1998
Coruna del Conde
Named after the man who planted the vines in 1970, this great aging cuvée is composed of Tempranillo as the dominant grape variety, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon and a small amount of Merlot. The destemmed harvest ferments in vats before aging in barrels for up to four years. After bottling, the wine undergoes a final aging of two to three years. These methods, as well as the exclusive use of grapes without any additives, are those of the estate's founder, and have been perpetuated by his grandson. Vinified using the Bordeaux method but with a distinctly Iberian character, this wine has a silky, velvety texture, a hallmark of perfectly blended tannins. A delicacy with mature fruit notes, a sublime, accomplished wine for life's finest moments. Drink now.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
I'm Natural Don't Panic #7 Red 2018
Bodegas Coruña del Conde
Julien López's I'm Natural, Don't Panic range consists of macerated wines. This 100% Tempranillo red is powerful, dense, and generous, but not lacking in freshness, the result of a high-altitude climate that subjects the vines to significant temperature variations. A lovely bouquet of red and black fruits. Decanting will allow it to express its full opulence. For grilled meats, roast lamb, grilled octopus, stews, cocido.
Ideally a wine to be decanted.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.
Cachaça “traditional” Magnifica de Faria
This exceptional still cachaça (40°), made from pure cane juice, will captivate you from the moment you open the bottle with its surprisingly sweet, aromatic, and floral aroma, and on the palate with its voluptuous notes of exotic fruits (banana, guava).
It is distilled from local sugarcane by João Luiz de Faria on his fazenda do Anil, near from Rio de Janeiro, since 1985. The cane fields and the factory are located in a natural park, with a pure water source within easy reach. The entire process, from field to bottle, takes place on site. The cane is pressed the same day it is harvested to preserve its freshness and original properties. Fermentation, in stainless steel vats, uses local natural yeasts and lasts eighteen hours. Distillation is done in a triple Alegria still, unique in Brazil, in limited production.
With this, you will make the most beautiful caipirinhas in the world (we recommend being light on the sugar to highlight the finesse of this cachaça). A big favorite of the Culinaries team.
Aquavit Helsingfors Fiskehamns The Helsinki Distilling Co.
Vintage Spirit Garage
The only Finnish aquavit on the market, this eau-de-vie (41.5% ABV) is intense, flavored with local aromatic seeds (caraway, fennel, dill) and fresh lemon peel. The botanicals are infused in Finnish rye spirit before distillation in a copper still. A portion is then matured in French oak barrels for a year, then blended with clear aquavit to smooth and refresh the taste. It is the perfect accompaniment to smoked salmon, seafood, shellfish, herring, caviar and all seafood. It is also an excellent digestif.

Notes of tropical fruits, cereals, and flowers (from Evil?) for a smooth, indulgent, rounded, and slightly spicy vodka. Slow distillation gives it its purity and freshness. Delicate notes of wheat emerge, ending with a long, herbaceous finish. Enjoy iced with caviar or, in a more Occitan style, with bottarga.
Les Cristallines William Pear Brandy
The Brana house, in the Basque country, is a staple of fruit brandies. Throughout the great Southwest of France and beyond, as far away as Paris and beyond, its name is immediately recognized as a classic of quality brandy. Established in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port for over a century, the house was originally dedicated to the wine and spirits trade. In 1974, Étienne and Adrienne Brana founded the distillery and planted a William pear orchard: the famous "Poire Brana" would soon be born. Later, their children, Martine and Jean, took over the business and developed the precious family know-how. While Martine, at the distillery, continued to innovate with fruits, spices, and plants, her brother Jean took care of the vines planted in 1984, in AOP Irouléguy. In addition to the wines, these terraced vines on the hillside are the source of the marc that makes the house brandy. "A Brana pear, please!" Many of us have heard this phrase on the terraces of our cafés or in the best bars. For many, the name Brana has become synonymous with pear brandy. To make it, pears from the Brana orchard, picked at the peak of ripeness, are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The resulting pear wine is then kept away from air so as not to undergo any alteration before its distillation, carried out in red copper pot stills. This traditional slow process allows for strict control of the process to ensure the quality and finesse of the eau-de-vie. Similarly, aging is carried out in stainless steel vats to preserve the freshness of the fruit and to avoid any woody notes. Bottling takes place when the eau-de-vie reaches its optimal point of maturity. It is a nectar that is immediately recognizable on the nose by its crystalline finesse, its elegance, its aromatic power expressing the quintessence of the pear. One has the impression, from the attack, of biting into the fruit. The finish, smooth, fine and long, continues to send the pear signal with force. Perfect conclusion to a good meal. Consume well chilled, between 5 and 6 °C.
