One of the earliest ripening sites in Burgundy a vineyard located between "La Justice" (on the lower side of D974 and Champerries on the upper side. Quite aromatic and lively in character with a depth of flavour that relaxes the tannic structure of the wine, providing excellent length on the palate. 15-20% fermentation with whole bunches, native yeasts...
We don't believe there is any other wine that could better express Yiannis Oikonomou's aesthetic of what he defines as a great wine. Antigone takes you on a unique journey into a world where perfection is defined by concepts such as authenticity and truth. An important terroir, defined here by the great Liatiko grape and the old pre-phylloxera vineyards,...
This wine draws on the tradition of Piemonte but equally of Burgundy. On the sandy soils of Lessona, Nebbiolo acquires a bouquet of aromas like rose, wild cherry and wild grapefruit with notes of tobacco, dried herbs and lively mineral dimension. On the palate its tannins are firm but velvety; the acidity is delicious same as the earthy dimension of the...
It is a blend of 50% Sangiovese, 40% Montepulciano and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, which is the classic blend of the appellation of origin. Sangiovese is more ethereal and elegant while Montepulciano gives the blend more body and richness. The wine comes from organic vineyards and is produced with minimal intervention in the winery. The fermentation and...
The wine is vinified by means of carbonic maceration and with indigenous yeasts, without the addition of sulphites during vinification and maturation of the wine. A small percentage of sulphites is added only before the wine is bottled. The philosophy of winemaking with minimal intervention, just as it does with its fantastic cru, is followed in Wild...
In the cru of Regnie are most of Julien Sunier's own vineyards in great "Lieux dits" such as En Oeillat. Here the vines are old, with an average age of 60 years, and are located at an altitude of between 280-400 meters on pink granitic sand with clay in the subsoil. Vinification is in an anaerobic environment (maceration carbonic) for about 10-20 days and...
Classical carbonic and semi-carbonic maceration with whole bunches for 10 to 20 days, followed by pressing in an old vertical press and maturation of the wine for 8-11 months in 10-year-old barrels in contact with the lees. This is a wine with the "upbringing" of a great Burgundy, elegant, light and ethereal, with lovely, clean fruit and a "tight"...
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...
Ramisco is a variety with "energy" that needs time to be tamed. Wherever you plant it outside of the Colares sand, its characteristics are very different. Here it showcases the unique, special character of the region that combines native vines, sand, proximity to the ocean, strong sea winds and very deep roots to meet the clay substrate and allow it to...
