"Les Champs des Vosger" is one of the wonderful Fixin, a designation of origin that has a much better terroir than its "low-key" presence in Burgundy suggests. Apparently this is a "key" for the energetic Galeyrand who with his wines gives a new dimension to such -less prominent- regions or vineyards in Burgundy. For Champs des Vosger he uses a 15-20%...
Pleasant, refreshing, with ideal ripeness and breadth in the mouth, free of any harshness. An airy, clear wine from Agiorgitiko that expresses the joy of life, without stylized exuberant barrels, acquired vanillas and excessive extractions on the nose and palate. The red fruit excels, crystal clear, expressive along with some smoke, fresh acidity and...
The two Rhodites (bio & natural) that Panagiotis produces differ, not in terms of their source, but in terms of their management at the winery. And there, of course, the differentiation is faint since the philosophy is non-intrusive in both wines. However, in the case of Natural Roditis, the wine is not filtered at all and only minimal sulphites are added...

From the limestone soils of the Elios plateau, with organic farming and minimal interventions during traditional winemaking where the skins remain in contact with the juice for a long time, Evryviadis produces another great orange...

The grapes from the vineyard (part of Rotenberg) are vinified in contact with the skins and are a combination of Riesling and Pinot Gris planted in 1982. The colour is amber, the nose is surprisingly intense with a combination of spicy Asian spices, lemon zest...
The altitude of 350m and the proximity to the Atlantic Ocean lead to a cool, almost cold, oceanic climate. The vines were planted in 1993 by mass clonal selection, from over 70 different biotypes of old vines from the region. The wine has been extracted for eight days with the skins on and like all Cozs wines is produced with minimal intervention,...
The exceptional southern exposure vineyard in the cru village of La Haye-Fouassiere is biodynamically farmed and has been distinguished for centuries for the top quality of the wines it produces. Le Fief du Breil is slowly fermented with indigenous yeasts and then left for thirty months on the lees in Landron's large underground concrete tanks. The result...
