Fruity and floral notes – think violets, green pepper, and hints of cherry and plum. The fine tannins give the wine a serious dimension, while finesse and elegance run through its entire range to the gently phenolic finish. The stems were removed by hand and extraction lasted a total of three months in 420-liter clay amphorae. It then remained for another...
Complex and complex with 'myriad' subtle nuances, white fruits, exotic character, sweet spices and honeyed notes. Volume and richness in the mouth that is balanced by the acidity and intensities that accompany the wine until its aftertaste. Extremely persistent and long-lasting, a wine that will have enormous aging potential. In any case, Ligira and...
Château de Fosse-Sèche Eolithe is a Cabernet Franc red wine with just a 'drop' of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. It belongs to the Vin de France category and is produced in the Saumur region on a stony plateau of the Jurassic period with soils of flint with gravel and clay which allows the roots of the vines (10-60 years old) to go deep into the soil....
Exquisitely lively without being austere with red fruit aromas like framboise, strawberry and noted of toast, brioche and butter. 10% Chardonnay is added to the blend in order to reduce the power of Pinot Noir on the palate where you get exceptional spicy character and a small hint of tannins. Minerality and acidity seem etched with a laser-like precision...
Fermentation with native yeasts exclusively in old Bordeaux and Burgundy oak barrels. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation in barrel and was bottled for the second fermentation in June 2014. There it remained in contact with the lees until September 2018 before sediment was removed and just 4gl/lt of dosage was added to classify it as an extra brut...
If you are used to crisp, “razor-sharp”, full of nerve and energy white wines, here you will be confronted with a completely different personality. Complexity, fluidity on the palate, soft lines and richness and ripeness are the characteristics that the granite terroir gives to Aspro Potamisi. The wine ferments spontaneously, without absolute temperature...
An outstanding natural wine made from 100% Malbec, with 15-year-old vines and minimal sulfur additions (below 30 mg/l total), intended for immediate consumption. In a broader perspective—and considering the whole-bunch vinification—it could be compared to a Beaujolais, even to the finest cru Beaujolais of the region. Fresh and approachable, with excellent...
For those with more than a passing interest in the Bordeaux region, Château Falfas is not just located on a beautiful terroir, just 1 km from the Gironde estuary. Since 1988, Véronique Cochran has been biodynamically cultivating the estate’s 20 hectares of vineyards, following in the footsteps of her father, François Bouchet, who served as a biodynamic...
There are two main factors that differentiate “Le Chevalier” from the estate’s classic cuvée. First is the age of the vines, which exceed 75 years, producing exceptionally high-quality, low-yield fruit under biodynamic cultivation. The second is that the blend is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, which makes up 65% of the wine, accompanied by 30% Merlot...
Thierry Valette acquired the historic Clos Puy Arnaud in 2000 and dedicated himself to producing outstanding wines based on biodynamic principles, moving toward what are often described as “natural wines,” with minimal intervention in the winery. The 2016 Grand Vin shows crisp, vibrant fruit with freshness and acidity that may be more reminiscent of the...
Another label whose name is inspired by Damien and Coralie Delecheneau's love of music. The grapes from this particular part of the vineyard have great potential and energy based on Coralie, as this is the last part of the vineyards they harvest each year and give it all their positive energy. After the grapes are destemmed, they are sorted oak by oak and...
