Gewurztraminer Origin White 2022,

Jean-Marc Dreyer

Jean-Marc Dreyer's Gewurztraminer Origin is an organic (AB label), biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from Alsace, made with maceration (orange wine), with no added sulfites. Jean-Marc Dreyer's Origin range consists of single-varietal cuvées based on six Alsatian grape varieties (Sylvaner, Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Riesling and Muscat), macerated on the skins with a touch of controlled oxidation, which gives a multidimensional nature to the Gewurztraminer grape variety, thus proving that it has never had its last word.

Vinification

The organically and biodynamically grown Gewurztraminer is harvested by hand and macerated for seven days in whole bunches. After pressing and fermentation, the wine is aged for ten to eleven months in the Alsatian style, in foudres and demi-muids, without topping up. Biodynamic method, fermentation by indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or in the cellar.

Tasting

Fragrant, powerful, sumptuous, disconcerting, addictive, structured in layers and of a surprising complexity, Gewurztraminer Origin is the gewurztraminer that you no longer expected, with an overpowering aromatic, without the sugar commonly associated with this grape variety. All the sugars have been eaten, what remains is an extraordinary richness of aromas, naked and unvarnished. Notes of mango, lychee, ylang-ylang, the bouquet of flowers and exotic fruits is there, sublimated by a dry and straight frame. This wine screams for foie gras, with or without truffle, but it can be drunk with everything from seafood to land.

Jean-Marc Dreyer, a biodynamic and natural Alsace winemaker (AB organic certification label), 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. In 2009, upon returning from a pilgrimage to Compostela, he decided to never again add sulfur to any wine. Having made this decision, he affirmed his style around skin maceration, accentuated and chiseled, bringing out the soul of the 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.

Le Rocher red 2017

Nicolas Chemarin

Le Rocher is made from Beaujolais Gamay grapes grown in the Combe Fleurette area, at an altitude of 550 meters and on an average 40% slope, facing south, on a plot of blue granite with very shallow soil. The 25-year-old vines rest on a rocky outcrop. The harvest is left to vat for 40 days in whole bunches with regular turning. After pressing, the young wine is aged on fine lees in Burgundy oak barrels. Bottling is done in the waning moon, without fining or filtration. This infinitely silky and delicious red, very mineral and very straight, will accompany meats in sauce, noble fish and even chocolate desserts.
Tasting temperature: between 14 and 16 °C.

Natural wine without added sulfites.

Saburin Rouge 2017,

Nicolas Chemarin
This pure Gamay from the Brouilly appellation is powerful and warm. A beautiful minerality with notes of crisp red fruits.
The perfect pairing: Galabar Black Pork Blood Sausage from Bigorre

Natural wine with no added sulfites.

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. Vino Rosato will suit everything you want from a rosé, and more: its purity and balance raise it above the standard image of summer rosés. We recommend it in any season and particularly with food.

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.

La Grande Journee Blanc 2020,

Jean-Yves Péron


La Grande Journée is a magnificent "polyphonic" maceration white, a distinguished orange with a layered structure. It will be perfect for any occasion. This cuvée is produced entirely from Jean-Yves's terraced Altesse plot, on mica schist soils. The grapes are harvested at the peak of ripeness (towards the end of September, Altesse being an early-ripening grape variety). They then undergo two weeks of carbonic skin maceration and three months of punching down, until the end of alcoholic fermentation. After racking around the end of December or beginning of January, the wine is aged for at least a year in 300-liter barrels.

Jean-Yves Péron embodies the natural renaissance of the beautiful Savoyard vineyard, which has long suffered from a somewhat flimsy image, not taken seriously enough. Yet, what treasures its varied soils and numerous ancient grape varieties produce!
Near Conflans, in Albertville (Savoie), Jean-Yves Péron skillfully combines committed viticulture and merchant winemaking, both under the banner of nature and high-altitude organic vines. Initially destined for a career in biochemistry, he quickly became drawn to 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. Jean-Yves' current vineyard, one and a half hectares biodynamic since the beginning, is divided between Conflans, near Albertville, and Fréterive, a little further down in the Isère Valley. Made up of micro-plots of vines, it is staggered between 350 m and 550 m above sea level and is worked entirely by hand. His trading activity, which he began in 2011, allows him to buy the harvest from organic winemakers close to his home (such as Raphaël Marin and Adrien Dacquin). Also, the construction of a new winery in 2017 allows him to increase production and collaborate with winemakers from Northern Italy: Paolo Angelino in Casale Monferrato (Turin), Giorgio Barbero in Asti. This is a new dimension given to his work as a winemaker, allowing him to diversify 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 very rich: it protects the vines and helps to 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 which 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 vats. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.

Clef à Molette Blanc 2021,

Domaine de l'Octavin
Lots of charm, yellow citrus and white flowers, and a clean, saline finish for this Clé à Molette, so named because it is, naturally, made 100% from the local grape variety called Molette (hence the label), harvested at the Trichon estate in Lhuis (Bugey), this wine is produced biodynamically on clay-limestone soils. The grapes are pressed directly; The must ferments and matures in vats for nine months.

“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.

Syrah 3 coups Red 2021,

La Ferme de l'Arbre

The nose of this Trois Coups is expressive, laden with red fruits. This fruity sensation continues on the palate: the wine is rich and very balanced. Since it was a rainy year, the tannins are still a little green, but they will polish after two or three years of aging. Trois Coups' aging potential is also very great. It is made from Syrah grown on a plot of loess and granite, with manual harvesting. The grapes are macerated in stainless steel vats, whole bunches, for a good ten days. Punching down the cap is carried out morning and evening during fermentation. Pressing is done in a manual ratchet press. Half of the wine is aged in 220-liter barrels and the other half in stainless steel vats. Bottling takes place in early July, shortly before the following harvest.

The wines are authentic Syrahs from the Rhône Valley, simple and delicious, joyful, convivial and fruity.

i Vicini Pinot Nero Red 2018,

Jean-Yves Peron

Jean-Yves Péron, an iconic figure in Savoie's natural wine scene, is expanding his horizons with his I Vicini range, made from organic grapes carefully selected in Northern Italy and expertly vinified in Savoie. This cuvée Pinot Nero Rouge 2018, 100% Pinot Noir, captures the essence of the Burgundy grape variety while adding a surprising and characterful Alpine touch.

A Pinot Noir between Piedmont and Savoie

Made from organic grapes harvested by hand in the heart of Piedmont, Italy, this wine is then vinified with the same rigor as the estate's other cuvées. A semi-carbonic maceration of whole bunches extracts finesse and freshness, while aging on lees for twelve months in old barrels refines its texture. Unfined or filtered, with minimal intervention, this Pinot Noir expresses exceptional purity.

Tasting: finesse and drinkability

The color is light and bright, heralding an airy wine. On the nose, aromas of small red fruits—cherry, raspberry, redcurrant—intertwine with floral and slightly spicy touches. On the palate, the attack is delicate, with fine tannins and a refreshing acidity that draws the wine towards a savory and persistent finish. A perfect balance between elegance and indulgence.

Food Pairings and Service

Ideal around 16-18°C, it pairs well with white meats, roast poultry, or mushroom risotto. Its remarkable drinkability also makes it an excellent companion for aperitifs with friends. With an aging potential of 5 to 10 years, this natural wine will evolve gracefully while retaining its liveliness.

The Bourgogne Rouge 2023 is a superb gateway into the world of Sylvain Pataille. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it emphasizes bright fruit and finesse: red cherry, raspberry, and small berries meet notes of peony, spices, and a light touch of orange zest. The palate is supple, juicy, and easy to drink, supported by fine tannins and an elegant finish.

Sylvain Pataille cultivates his vines organically and favors manual harvesting and low-intervention winemaking. This Bourgogne is accessible yet far from simplistic, to be enjoyed lightly chilled with roasted poultry, pâté en croûte, beef bourguignon, seared tuna, or soft cheeses.

Short description: A Burgundian Pinot Noir full of fruit and finesse, with notes of cherry, red berries, peony, and spices. Supple, gourmet, and easy to drink, it's an excellent introduction to Sylvain Pataille's style.

Magnum Pinot Noir 2020

Domaine Einhart
A velvety, ripe red, 100% Pinot Noir, with an intense, fragrant, and gently fruity aroma. The deep, purplish color evokes black cherry. The initial 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 berries are still present, supported by present but well-melted tannins, leading 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, using indigenous yeasts, takes between ten and twelve days. Aging for one year on fine lees, in demi-muids, precedes bottling without filtration. From the vine to the cellar, this wine was made without any additives. Decanting is recommended so that it can fully express its finesse and grace.

Located in the northern part of the Alsatian vineyard, horizontally above Strasbourg, the Einhart estate is a ten-hectare family estate 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 oolite 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 co-founder, Nicolas devotes his winemaking work to protecting the land and biodiversity, winemaking without inputs, refusing harmful phytosanitary products and maintaining ecological refuge areas. His estate has been certified organic since 2011. Like Jean-Marc Dreyer, he is resolutely moving towards skin maceration and produces white maceration wines (orange wines) in addition to a Pinot Noir red. Entirely manual harvesting, destemming of the bunches, 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 grape, lively, powerful, invigorating, and transcribe the minerality of the very beautiful terroirs of the Vosges foothills.

Rosso 2011

Le Coste
This generous Italian red is made from a blend composed primarily of Grechetto (a local variety related to Sangiovese), with the secondary grape varieties being Cannaiolo, Colorino, Ciliegiolo, and Vaiano, indigenous varieties planted in the vineyards on the volcanic soils of the Le Coste estate. Fermentation lasts about a month in French oak and chestnut vats. Rosso is then aged in Slovenian oak barrels. At first glance, a beautiful ruby ​​color, a crisp and juicy palate, with notes of red and black fruits.

On the Rock Again 2020,

Nicolas Chemarin
Deep, mineral, and hyper-complex yet highly drinkable, On The Rock Again presents a purple color with violet highlights. Its nose is floral (violet), carrying notes of wet rock and spices. The attack evokes ripe red fruits (raspberry, cherry). The aftertaste is long and lively with great salinity. The tannins, melted and elegant, give the wine a very pleasant roundness. This Gamay Noir à jus blanc cuvée directly alludes, through its title, to the omnipresent, outcropping rock of the Marchampts terroir, directly transmitting its earthy notes to the Gamay. The minerality of this superb hillside Beaujolais red, classified as a Vin de France, should come as no surprise. We recommend tasting at 12°C and uncorking, or even decanting, half an hour to an hour before serving this wine. The harvest is vatted by gravity, in whole bunches. Vatting lasts fifteen days at a controlled temperature (5 to 18°C), without pumping over. After pressing, the cuvée is aged in vats on fine lees for ten months. Bottled in the waning moon, in August following the harvest, without filtration or the addition of sulfites.

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.

Gamay Rouge 2020,

Domaine de l'Octavin
Nice acidity, lovely minerality, plenty of aroma, and a suppleness that asserts itself in the glass. Whichever way you look at it, this Gamay is very Gamay: fruity, juicy, with pleasant notes of raspberry, blackberry, licorice, and cherry. Mayga Gamay also offers a slight sparkle that awakens the dead. The grapes come from Pierre Boyat's estate in Leynes, Beaujolais, and macerate for twenty days in whole bunches.
