VNBA Vinel lo Ancestral Sparkling White 2021
Partida Creus
"The nose of this Vinel lo Blanco Ancestral offers aromas of ripe white fruits and yeast reminiscent of pastries. On the palate, it is elegant, fresh, and suitable for all occasions, but we recommend it as an aperitif or to accompany desserts (king cake, pithiviers, millefeuille, and all types of puff pastry). This lively and easy-drinking white sparkling wine (10% alcohol) is a blend of native Catalan grape varieties: Garnatxa Blanca, Macabeu, Moscatell, Vinyater, Xarel lo, Pansé, and Parellada. The harvest is pressed directly, and the must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats with indigenous yeasts. A second fermentation takes place in the bottle, where it ages for 10 months on its lees. fines. Dry, light, and fruity, classified as a Vino de Mesa (table wine), Vinel·lo Blanco Ancestral will easily replace a Champagne with a sunnier nuance.

Partida Creus is an important estate, both from a winemaking and historical perspective—we're talking about the history of the vine in Catalonia. Massimo Marchiori and Antonella Gerosa, originally from Piedmont—and even from the Langhe region, where wine is well-known—first pursued careers as architects in Barcelona. But the wine bug bit them, and soon they abandoned the big city and its sophistication for the vineyards of southern Catalonia, in Bonastre in Baix-Penedés. There they found a quantity of abandoned vineyards planted with a dizzying diversity of traditional Catalan grape varieties, which they passionately revived to save these varieties—and their wines— of oblivion. For them, it is not just a matter of heritage rescue, no: it is a matter of taste and nature. Of natural wines, which they will never stop making from now on on these sandy, poor, clay-limestone or clay-gravel soils, poor and poorly irrigated, where the vines suffer to give their best juice. Massimo and Antonella practice organic, biodynamic viticulture, entirely manual and natural in order to give new life to these wines. Vinyater, sumoll, garrut, monastrell, ull de perdiu, ull de llebre, sumoll, queixal de llop, cariñena, trepat, subirat parent, maccabeu, parellada, pansé, vinel·lo, bobal, cartoixà vermell or xarel·lo: it is a true conservatory of native Catalan grape varieties that Partida Creus cares for. There is also moscatel, Grenache, Merlot, and Cabernet (among others). Few wineries can boast growing so many different grape varieties. The wines reflect this diversity, with winemakers striving to convey the signature of the soil and the grape variety as best as possible: single varietals are common among them, alongside extensive blends, all in the styles dear to Catalonia: still wine, "ancestral" sparkling wine, and even vermouth. The bottles themselves are works of art: bare glass, simply marked with two large stenciled initials that indicate the cuvée. The wines, fresh, vibrant, lush but always straight and impeccably juicy and fruity, breathe life. The arrival of a Partida Creus at the table always elicits cries of satisfaction.
Nails and Dust Red 2021
Behind this metallic and dusty appellation (the translation of the cuvée's name) lies a wine of character, lively and mineral, full of sap and vitality. It is made from Minervois Carignan grapes macerated and crushed for six days, resulting in a beautiful extraction of tannins that need to soften slightly. At the time of writing (March 2023), this wine still requires approximately one year of bottle aging before it can be optimally enjoyed. After this time, it will reveal all its passion and energy. An excellent companion to red meats, grilled meats, grilled sausages, and good times with friends.

Founded and run by Claire Sage and Aimé Duveau, located in Chanteuges (Haute-Loire), Belly Wine Experiment is as much an experience as a winemaking business. The creative duo has a lot in common: 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, all 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. Belly Wine Experiment's unique feature is the exoticism (in the literal sense) of its blends, with Catalan Xarello, for example, blending effortlessly with Puy-de-Dôme Gamay. The wines are made using semi-carbonic maceration, without the addition of chemical additives or excessive manipulation in the cellar. The winery is also known for its high-quality, vinous perries.
Crac Rosé 2021
Belly Wine Experiment
Fresh, fruity, and pleasant, Crac is a vin gris, a still rosé wine made entirely or partially from black grapes. It generally undergoes a very short maceration, hence its light color. This is obtained by slow direct pressing (forty-eight hours) of Auvergne Gamays "sur limagne," or on the dark-colored sedimentary and volcanic soils that make up the Auvergne plain. This slow pressing, replacing a short maceration, allows for a gentle extraction of the grape's constituents and gives the wine its color. To these Auvergne Gamays are added a proportion of Pinot Gris from Alsace. Categorized as Vin de France, free from any chemical or sulfite additives in the vineyard or in the cellar, Crac spends a year aging on lees before bottling. This wine is produced using organic farming methods and has received no chemical or sulfite additives, in the vineyard or in the cellar. It will go very well with charcuterie, cured meats, and tapas of all kinds.

Skin-Contact Rafling White 2020,
Fruit, balance, elegance, roundness, and integrity all at once, this Riesling has a lot to tell. Our own Frédéric Cossard, equally at home in Burgundian-style winemaking (but without additives) as he is in the multi-hued refinements of merchant winemaking, now offers us a Riesling vinified with skin-contact maceration. Don't nitpick too much about food and wine pairings, this one is tailored for all circumstances.

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 as a wine broker for some time 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 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 practice is not limited to Burgundy since 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.

It asserts itself, on the nose and palate, with boldness and complexity. It is a magnificent old rum with notes of caramel and spices, aged and matured to perfection. The symphony is made up of the different tones of the old vintages that compose this fine and intense rum. A meditation rum, made for Havana cigars and great dark chocolates.

The Longueteau distillery, located in Capesterre-Belle-Eau (Guadeloupe), is the oldest distillery on the island still in operation. It has the distinction of being entirely self-sufficient in sugarcane production, which it uses to create its magnificent terroir-based agricultural rums. Agricultural rum, we should point out, is made from pure sugarcane juice, unlike many other Caribbean rums, which are produced from cane molasses. It is a specialty of the French Antilles. The estate is currently in the hands of François Longueteau, a distiller since 1979. Production is, as it was originally, artisanal and traditional, but the sugarcane terroirs are cultivated using plot-by-plot methods—this is Longueteau's great originality, the first distillery on the island to have adopted this approach. Two varieties of sugarcane, blue cane and red cane, are cultivated, as well as fruits from the Guadeloupe region. Longueteau rums and the resulting preparations (punches, shrubberies, etc.) are refined, aromatic, deep, and fragrant.
Vino Rosso Red 2017
Corva Gialla
Red fruits, mineral and earthy notes, tertiary aromas, spices, and tobacco: this sums up the profile of Vino Rosso, the emblematic red of Azienda Corva Gialla, with beautiful notes of evolution and a pronounced but not excessive full-bodiedness. The richness, due to a high natural sugar content during fermentation, and the polyphenolic maturity are remarkable, as well as the balance between velvety and tannicity, lightness and body, roundness and acidity. On the nose, notes of spices such as cinnamon, black pepper, and fennel; On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and dominated by red fruits: ripe cherry, raspberry and strawberry. Black fruits and plum are not left out, and delicious aromas of dried fruits (prune, fig) combine with spices on the finish.

GT Garrut Ancestral Sparkling Red 2019
Partida Creus
With its liveliness and deep notes of black fruit, GT Garrut Ancestral recalls the best of Lambrusco, but it is something else entirely. It is an atypical but oh-so-delightful single-varietal wine that deserves a closer look at its original character. Its purplish color with an exuberant pink foam, already expressing notes of blackberry on the nose, is already quite a program. GT Garrut displays beautiful earthy, juicy, and intense qualities; it is very characteristic of black fruits, particularly blackberry (blackberry or tree blackberry). Beautiful notes of red fruits too, and a delicious acidity. It is made entirely from Garrut, also called Monastrell, a Catalan grape variety related to Mourvèdre. This bright, summer-perfect wine is hand-harvested. Entirely destemmed, the grapes macerate for three days with punching down every three hours, and alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts takes place for four months in stainless steel vats, followed by twenty months in oak barrels. Unfiltered, unfined, no sulfites added. GT Garrut smells of family vines, artisanal, unconstrained wine.

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.
Madloba White 2018,
Domaine des Miquettes skillfully combines the terroir and winemaking traditions of the Rhône with those of Georgia, whose viticulture is a model for Paul Estève and Chrystelle Vareille, the estate's founders. Located in Ardèche, south of the Saint-Joseph appellation, Paul learned his trade from René-Jean Dard and François Ribo, two leading figures in natural wine in the Rhône Valley. With Chrystelle, he began by taking over Paul's family farm with two acres of vines, then in 2004 the entire estate, which now covers 4.3 hectares. The white grape varieties are located around the house, the red grape varieties are planted on steep slopes, between 300 and 450 meters above sea level. The plots rest on a granite base with light soils: black mica granite, schist and gneiss. Everything is cultivated organically (Ecocert) with biodynamic practices. The vines are cared for and fortified using plant decoctions and clay. The soils are worked by horse or winch and pickaxe. No chemical inputs are added to the vineyard work. The harvest is entirely manual.
The great specificity of the Domaine des Miquettes remains the use of Georgian techniques, inspired by their passion for this country in the Caucasus, the cradle of wine, where eight thousand year old winemaking techniques are still used. At the heart of this viticulture is the qvevri, the buried jar where all the winemaking takes place: fermentation with skin maceration and aging. They set out to discover this country and returned with the decision to age all their wines in buried jars. They have twenty-six, but distinguish between tinajas (Spanish jars) for fermentation-maceration and buried "amphorae" for aging. No sulfur is added. For both reds and whites, the terracotta erases astringency and transmutes it into a velvety texture, a fruity and supple material.
Madloba blanc ("thank you" in Georgian) is a blend of 50% Marsanne and 50% Viognier. The vines are planted at an altitude of 350 meters, on a hillside plot with granite and black mica soils. The wine is aged for a year in qvevri, amphorae buried in the cellar in the Georgian style. This wine is reminiscent of its Georgian counterparts aged in terracotta, with its floral and spicy notes, mineral tension, a full texture, and intense flavor. It's an all-rounder when it comes to pairings.

Allé Canto Sweet Red 2016
Antony Tortul loves old vineyards: he devotes his life to finding them and making wine from them. Just as there are landless shepherds, he can be defined as a landless winegrower, in other words, a wine merchant whose area of activity extends throughout Languedoc and, eastward, as far as Châteauneuf-du-Pape, in search of the best terroirs. Born in Foix, with six years of experience as a wine technician and oenologist in various vineyards in the south of France, he created La Sorga in 2008. His enthusiasm leads him on a path filled with favorites, and each of these favorites is a vineyard. The result is a dizzying mosaic of natural, lively, and spirited wines, which reinvents itself each year with around thirty cuvées per vintage. Few winemakers can list such a variety of grape varieties on their menu: the whole of southern France is there with muscats, grenaches, picpoul, mauzac, carignan, cinsault, marsanne, alicante, braucol, duras, viognier, len-de-l’el, and all the rest.
This single-varietal wine made from Alicante Bouschet comes from the ferruginous clay-limestone soils of Cessenon-sur-Orb, in the Saint-Chinian appellation area. The vines grow on a very old plot (seventy years old). The late harvest is sorted berry by berry and the vinification is carried out in open amphorae. Maceration takes place for three months, and the wine is aged in demijohns for four years. All this produces a very powerful and aromatic wine, with a kirsch, vegetal and fresh nose, smoky and chocolatey, black olive, which will not leave you indifferent. The palate is full, with very little tannin for an Alicante, and it's hard to get fresher with a late harvest. The wine's ageing is remarkable (more than six months) and the aging potential is a good twenty years.
Magnum Que Pasa Red 2012, Domaine Leonine
Seventy-year-old Grenache noir and gris combine to create this highly drinkable red. The harvest spends fifteen days in carbonic maceration before spending five months in barrels before being bottled by gravity without added sulfur. Juicy, sappy, and delicious, it smells and tastes of the garrigue and the Mediterranean, enhanced by flawless freshness. So what's going on? Only very pleasant things.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Noisette Ancestral White 2018, Émilie Mutombo
A little something from the land of cava, a lovely amber color, fruit and bubbles: a lively and bouncy effervescent, a celebration of life to be enjoyed during summer evenings (but not only).
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
Magnum I'm Natural Don't Panic #7 Red 2018
Coruna del Conde
Julien López's I'm Natural, Don't Panic range consists of macerated wines. This 100% Tempranillo red is both powerful and supple; its freshness is the result of a high-altitude climate that subjects the vines to significant temperature variations. A lovely bouquet of red fruits and a beautiful balance of sweetness and minerality. Serve with tapas, grilled meats, or poultry.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
