With the characteristic pale colour of white onion skin, Luntáne Rosé de Gris gives a lot of "gas" in terms of aromatic complexity. Elegant and rosy, yet without overpowering floral aromas, grapefruit and red fruit aromas come alongside the rose to balance grapefruit and red fruit flavours along with a characteristic minerality. Freshness of mint,...
The grapes come from two different vineyard plots in the zone of Archanes with clay-clay sloping soils that drain well and are cultivated by two Archanian vine growers who take care of them with absolute diligence. The vines are still young, 7 and 12 years old, one at an altitude of 600m and the other a little lower at 470m. The grapes will be kept at a...
12 hours of cold pre-fermentation maceration at low temperatures followed by blending of the must from both varieties and fermentation at low controlled temperatures. The wine will remain in contact with the fine lees for about two months to gain volume and slight complexity. A wine suitable for all occasions, either as an aperitif or paired with fried...
High acidity is just one of the characteristics of the Aligote variety. Next to it, in the best wines, there is a surprising salty minerality and a high-voltage energy that, in the case of Pierre Morey and with the help of biodynamics, is "dressed" with complex and beautifully ripened fruit. The wine is deliberately vinified and remains mainly in tanks,...
A classic expression of Chardonnay from biodynamic vineyards fermented and matured in 100% barrel, but not new, for 22 months. Fermentation, as in all Pierre Morey wines, is spontaneous and sulfites are minimal, while malolactic conversion was done slowly adding more volume and thickness to the vibrant fruit and acidity on the palate. All processes are...
The characteristically stony, limestone-filled soils of Les Tessons, combined with the biodynamic cultivation of Pierre Morey's privately owned vineyard, clearly illustrate the gifts of this terroir in wine. More nerve and stony minerality than fruit, in a wine that is "vertical" rather than "broad" as one would expect from a Meursault on the palate. And...
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...

Traditional Burgundian cellar approach, with partial fermentation of whole bunches in oak fermenters for 14 days. This is followed by maturation in barrels from 1 to 5 years old, for a total of 12 months. Concentrated on the nose, which offers complex notes of red cherries, plum and game, while the palate is powerful and quite full-bodied but with...
One of Rully's great terroirs, a gorgeous premier cru that combines the soft, perfectly ripened fruit from the eastern exposure slopes of "Les Cloux" with spicy peppery elements, classic as can be, and with the corners rounding the beautifully integrated barrel. The vineyard is biodynamically farmed and the wine is matured in a combination of barrels and...
